Welcome to 187 Water Street in the picturesque and peaceful village of Freeport, to a home that makes you truly feel like you are home! This home is known as the Blackford House which carries a great deal of history in the village. Recently the home came into the care of a family that worked hard to lovingly restore this 5 bedroom, 2 bath beauty wall to wall. The 3+ acres of land hold various views of the ocean, and if you love whales, they are not very far from here! The untouched field that overlooks the bay could present opportunities for those with a vision! You will love the layout and flow of the main floor as it features a kitchen the cooks in your family will love, with a premium large ZLINE propane/electric range, lots of room to work in, and a walk through pantry for plenty of space to store cooking and baking supplies. The elegant dining room with double garden doors opens up to the large back deck and treed yard. The living room invites you to cozy up on the couch with its beautifully appointed wood mouldings and character of the imported wood and tile fireplace. You will find also on the main level a master bedroom with a door out to the deck, and a parlour room that can easily serve as a second main floor bedroom, an extra large 4 piece bathroom and a laundry room. Upstairs you will find three spacious bedrooms with lovely water views, and a large bonus room that could be used as a studio or office. After a long day at work imagine relaxing in your own large soak tub under the skylight! And to start your mornings, imagine yourself sitting in the front porch sipping coffee, watching the sunrise with the tide changes over the cove! With the home having been newly insulated and almost all windows replaced, a new septic tank and a freshly drilled well, most of the biggest expenses here have been dealt with. Add in the small barn and work shed you have the makings of an awesome family homestead! Read More
