Positioned along this gentle stretch of the Kennebec River, is a craftsman styled colonial home unlike any you have ever seen! Located in the coveted Fiddlers Reach Neighborhood, this home was designed and built by an inspired Shelter Institute graduate (original owner), featuring impressive hand hewn timbers/ framing, encased by 12 inch double wall construction. Entering via the mudroom with half bathroom + storage, the main level unfurls into an open layout, beaming with natural light and sweeping views of the water. Delightful wide plank white oak floors lead into the kitchen- abundant with storage and pantry, gas range, butcher block as well as stone counter tops, and a large slate farmers sink overlooking the dining space with water views! At the heart of the home is a center chimney and enamel cast iron wood stove, handily heating the many inviting spaces on this level. The dining space is ample and easily accommodates friends and family for large gatherings. There is a plenty of room to relax and enjoy the views from the living space surrounding the wood stove or position yourself to take in the serenity of the river and the wildlife that abounds out your front door! Newly installed composite deck and cable rails beg for out of doors gatherings in the most ideal of settings! There are 2 sets of stairs to access the second level, here, one will find 2 bedrooms of sizable scale, the full bathroom has been tastefully remodeled to include tile surround shower and double vanity. Down the hallway is the Owners suite, including ensuite with soaking tub that peers toward the water, vaulted ceiling accented with warm pine boards, and double closets. The 3rd level is a bonus with loads of potential- partially finished this is a prime space for a game room or craft room. The lot is spacious, private and would allow for an additional dwelling or building to be constructed. 500 ft of deep water frontage, minutes to downtown Bath, this is a must see
