179 Second St, Hallowell, ME 04347

With Downtown Hallowell, the Kennebec River Rail Trail, and the Vaughn Woods Nature Preserve literally steps from your front door, this split-level ranch is the best-kept secret on the Hallowell market. Hip mid-century-modern style makes it the perfect place for small pre-downtown gatherings, or a place you can be confident in, should hosting a spontaneous post-downtown rendezvous be on the weekend agenda. Situated high and proud overlooking the mighty Kennebec, the exterior of the home and the landscaping have been meticulously maintained by the current owner for more than 25 years. On the inside, the home features 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, a bright and open living room with a wall of windows facing the river, a kitchen and dining room with a sliding door to the deck (perfect for grilling), and beautiful original circa 67 oak floors. Most furnishings convey with the sale, making the transition from renting an apartment to owning a home affordable and seamless.
