Set back from Waterman Beach Road on a private drive, this classic Cape Cod style home has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths on 1.04 landscaped acres with wooded views and terrific curb appeal. A white picket fence, tasteful plantings, covered porches and a screened porch make a great first impression and allow plenty of room to relax outdoors. The living room is the heart of the home, anchored by a built-in gas fireplace and finished with the detailed trim work found throughout the house. The kitchen has been recently updated with white painted cabinetry and elegant marble countertops, and a separate dining room offers a comfortable space for everyday meals and entertaining. The first floor primary bedroom includes its own bath and a walk-in closet, and the remaining bedrooms are well maintained and ready for the next owner's personal touches. An attached two car garage and a full basement with a large workshop area provide plenty of room for projects, hobbies and storage. Additional features include oil-fired forced hot water heat, a private well and septic, and double pane windows. The setting is quiet and peaceful, yet just a short drive to Rockland for shopping, dining and services, and close to the coast. Built in 1988 with 1,616 square feet of living space, this well cared for home offers a rare combination of character, privacy and convenience in South Thomaston.
