EXTRAORDINARY LOCATION! Don't miss this opportunity to own a spacious, well-maintained home on Castine's premier village shoreline. 127 Perkins Street offers a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath contemporary cape with views you must see to believe! Enter into a spacious kitchen with double islands that is open to the dining and living spaces that go along the entire back wall. This great room is a soaring space with intersecting wood beams overhead and lots of sunshine. An arched brick wood burning fireplace is featured in the middle of the space. The great room opens onto a rebuilt deck along the back length of the home to take advantage of the elevated, 180 degree views of the harbor out to the Penobscot Bay. Moor your boat right off the property. The expansive, open lawn area goes out to the edge of a terrific granite sea wall, built to protect the site from erosion. Gentle sloping access to the beach beside the wall allows easy entrance for your kayaks or swimming and beach activity. The first floor of the home also offers direct entry to an attached 2 car garage through a laundry room that could double as a little office nook with water views. On the west end of the house there is the primary bedroom with an attached bath featuring a walk-in tub should accessibility be a priority. Upstairs there are two more bedrooms with a shared bathroom in between. Stairs from the great room into the basement lead to a finished family room area that has a wood stove hookup (currently with a Franklin style fireplace in unknown condition) Major improvements include newer back deck and footings, and roof shingles 2013/2016, updated sets of sliders all along the back wall, patio, automatic generator and an alarm and lift station to prevent any public sewer system malfunctions. This is a very comfortable year-round home that is perfect for the buyer expecting some cosmetic projects without the worry of structural problems. Call for a showing before it's gone!
