342 Main StreetSaco, ME 04072

Description

Some homes simply have a story to tell. For more than 130 years, this 1892 Queen Anne Victorian has been a Main Street landmark in Saco's historic district, and it's ready for its next chapter. You'll feel the charm from the brick sidewalk: a corner turret, bands of diamond-cut shingles, a sunburst gable, a second-story balcony, and a welcoming covered porch with spindle work trim and graceful sweeping rails. Inside, rich woodwork and period details meet modern comfort. The kitchen and baths have been tastefully updated, and built-ins in the dining room and kitchen add character and function. Over 3,000 sq ft offers 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a fireplace. Head up to the unfinished attic, where over 1,300 additional sq ft gives you room to dream bigger, and the turret frames views of downtown Saco and across to Biddeford. Outside, generous landscaping and mature trees frame a spacious backyard and rear deck, and a long-paved driveway leads to a detached garage/carriage house. Stroll to downtown shops, dining, and City Hall, and hop on the Amtrak Downeaster just half a mile away. Zoned MB, it offers the flexibility to remain a grand single-family home or explore an ADU, two-family, B&B, professional office or mixed use, subject to City of Saco approval. Buyer to verify. Full photography, a video tour and a floor plan are coming soon!
