39 Middle St, Hallowell, ME 04347

One of a kind home rich with Hallowell history. Prominently located on the corner of Middle Street and Academy for which Academy Street was named. In the 1960's, after a century and a half of academic use, the building and grounds underwent a huge transformation converting the property to a single family home. The well designed interior offers a completely renovated kitchen featuring cherry cabinets and center island. A formal dining room opens into a spacious living room with lovely built-ins, mantled fireplace and hardwood floors. A central hallway leads the way to the three bedrooms and fully rehabbed bathroom with subway tiled tub enclosure, custom vanity and mosaic tile floor. Plumbing and commode in place for a second bathroom in the basement. The current owner has been a good steward to the home, investing in many improvements and updates during her time here. Some of these improvements that may go unnoticed include updating the electrical system and installation of a new circuit breaker panel, lining the chimney that serves the boiler, replacing interior doors with solid wood doors, installing new light fixtures throughout, a new hot water heater and expansion tanks, replacing all windows with Anderson double hung windows, a newly shingled roof and much more. This home that has been enjoyed, loved and celebrated for all of it has to offer as well as for the convenience of location. Within a very short walk, one can enjoy the entertainment, dining and shopping of downtown Hallowell, the well-stocked shelves of Hubbard Free Library, view from the river along the Kennebec Rail Trail and a host of other community offerings. This is an opportunity not to be missed!
