Property Description
Fully restored antique cape cod on 1.71 acres with a deepwater dock, mooring, and 360' of frontage on the Saco River! The historic Morrill's Landing property is a lifestyle opportunity not to be missed, with gently sloping land descending through an evergreen grove to the calm shores of the Saco River as it meanders to Saco Bay and the open Atlantic. An angler's dream, a boater's delight, the shoreline is as tranquil as you will find in the vibrant city of Biddeford, with pristine undeveloped land across the river. The home has been meticulously restored over the last 20 years, with efficiency and modern living in mind, while keeping true to its colonial heritage. Exposed beams, pine floors, and original fixtures are integrated with modern Anderson 400 Series windows, efficient heat pumps, and a brand new kitchen added to the river side of the home. In addition to the new kitchen, the first floor features a den with a wood stove, a living room with a wood burning fireplace and reading nook, a dining room original to the home, a remodeled full bathroom with laundry, and flex room with a loft that could serve as a bedroom, office, or media room. Upstairs, two character-filled bedrooms look down towards the river and share a full bath. The attached barn with loft has been restored and a new slab poured, allowing for hobby space, storage, or myriad other applications. Dream of campfires on the riverbank in between casting for stripers or refreshing swims in the calm, cool waters. A quick boat ride brings you out beyond Biddeford Pool for a day of exploring Maine's coast. Raised beds and a chicken coop invite gardening and hobby farming. All this, only a short distance to the core of Biddeford, one of Maine's most historic and dynamic urban centers with vibrant culture and award winning restaurants. A call to appreciate all the essential elements of the good life, Morrill's Landing awaits its next steward.
