Walk the private trail through the pines to your firepit perched high above the Saco River, with 196 feet of owned frontage, and watch the sun set over the mountains. Set back off the road on 3.95 acres in an established neighborhood near downtown Fryeburg, this 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath contemporary is beautifully built and nearly new. Enter through the covered porch into the mudroom, with plenty of storage, a half bath, and access to the oversized 27x30 heated garage. The kitchen is anchored by a huge 3' x 9' island, with lots of cabinetry, an apron farmhouse sink, a stainless range hood, and a separate walk-in pantry. The dining room opens to a spacious living room with a gas fireplace, and sliders lead to the back deck and a newly fenced yard. Upstairs, the primary bedroom has a large walk-in closet with built-ins and a tiled bath with a stand-up shower and large soaking tub. A Juliet balcony overlooks the private woods, with mountain views in winter (and a little in summer too!). Three more generously sized bedrooms, a laundry room, and another full bath complete the second floor. A recently installed whole-house generator keeps things running in every season. The owners even created a walking path around the property and along the river, so you can get some exercise and serenity right on your own property. Fryeburg Academy is less than two miles up the road, along with a grocery store, coffee shop, restaurants, and specialty shops. 15 minutes to North Conway for skiing, dining, and shopping, 15 minutes to Pleasant Mountain, and 25 minutes to Bridgton.
