Welcome home to Hanson House. Built in 1853, this well-maintained and tastefully updated Carpenter Gothic home (said to be one of the best examples in Maine) is located in a sought-after neighborhood in Gardiner, just a short walk to the Common and downtown offerings like A1 Diner, Bintliff's, Bateau Brewing, and Johnson Music Hall.
Upon entering from the garage or deck, you'll find yourself in a heated mudroom. Hang your coat and boots before entering a modern kitchen with ample storage and maple cabinets. The floor-to-ceiling windows in the dining and living room (with woodstove) drench the space with sunlight. A full bathroom, office with bay window, and formal entrance complete the picture downstairs. Hardwood and pumpkin pine floors throughout the home add warmth and character.
Ascend the staircase and you'll find three bedrooms, a passageway room, a full bath with clawfoot tub and a spacious and sunbathed family room with a gas stove. There's also a hobby room and storage in the third-floor attic.
An attached Gothic Barn with crawl space beneath offers even more storage, utility, and charm. The house has a full dry basement. Heating is very economical thanks to an efficient natural gas furnace. A hybrid hot-water heater provides ample hot water. Public water and sewer. A new roof was installed in March 2023. Flower beds provide color throughout the year. An ancient Concord grape vine borders the property.
Perfectly situated, eye-catching, and functional. Hanson House is the perfect blend of history and modern living.
