Rare opportunity to own this sun-filled three-story home in a highly desirable area of coastal Kennebunk. This building's history includes use as the Kennebunk Beach area Post Office. Having been a 2-unit property for over 40 years (2 separate condos), opportunities await to create a single family home, or generate income from one or both units.
The home sits on a generously sized lot with ample parking space for both units as well as open lawn space for family activities and gatherings.
The first floor unit with it's wrap around porch offers an open floor plan for easy entertaining plus 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The second unit which had the entire upper level replaced in 2008 is currently set up as 1 bedroom with 2 full baths but could be converted to 2 bedrooms.
Aside from beautiful coastal vistas all the way to the Nubble Lighthouse visible from it's windows and decks, this home's number one asset is its location including walking distance to Mother's Beach and KBIA as well as it's close proximity to golf, tennis and the many restaurants, shops and galleries in town.
This has been a cheerful home with a tradition of many happy family memories and gatherings over the years. Come see it for yourself, and perhaps you can create more memories for yours!
