Property Description
Welcome to 338 Foreside Road! Experience the charm and elegance of the York Estate, one of New England's oldest homes, originally built by famed shipbuilder Edwin York in 1716 as a summer retreat. This historic gem has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully expanded over the years. The Victorian addition features a wrap-around porch, mansard roof, and grand front-to-back parlor. Offering the perfect blend of antique allure and modern amenities, the main home boasts 6 bedrooms, 4 full baths and 2 half baths. This special property also features a fully-equipped single level, 1 bedroom and full bath in-law apartment with separate entrance, private yard and income potential. The spacious, custom kitchen features cherry cabinets, and Vermont cured granite countertops. An amazing pantry with a Guinness tap refrigerator, sink, microwave and coffee station adds a fun touch. The first floor offers a flexible floorplan and options for blending formal and informal living spaces. Preserving the historical integrity of the home you will find beautiful wide plank pine floors, wood-burning fireplaces with classic mantels, coffered ceilings, and a ''good morning'' staircase. Outside, enjoy stunning Victorian-inspired perennial gardens, a private fenced yard, and multiple outdoor spaces for relaxation, including a hot tub, outdoor shower, and a large patio with a fire pit. The wrap around porch is perfect for enjoying a cup of coffee in the morning, reading a book during the day and enjoying a glass of your favorite beverage in the evening. The circular driveway, 3-bay garage with additional storage and potting area, and two vegetable gardens complete the property's appeal. All of this conveniently located on Falmouth Foreside near Town Landing, the public launch, golf course, shopping, marina and downtown Portland! This home is a true treasure, offering a rare opportunity to own a piece of history while enjoying modern comforts and beautiful outdoor spaces!
