About this home

Beautifully renovated brick home on 1.97 acres offering exceptional space, natural light, and flexibility--all just minutes from Historic Bath and Bath Creek. With no zoning restrictions and no city taxes, this property provides rare freedom, privacy, and long-term value in a highly desirable location. Completely updated throughout, the home features new flooring, updated bathrooms, and a stunning kitchen with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances including a gas cooktop, built-in microwave, and dishwasher, and a bright bay window breakfast nook. The renovation blends high-end finishes with everyday functionality, creating a home that feels both refined and comfortable. The main level offers an inviting and highly functional layout with a formal living room, formal dining room, spacious family room with fireplace, and a sun-filled sunroom that connects seamlessly to an expansive deck overlooking the private backyard. Nearly every space is filled with natural light and designed for both relaxed living and entertaining. With 5 bedrooms and approximately 15 total rooms/living spaces, the home offers exceptional flexibility without limitation. Four full bathrooms serve the main home, including one located within a private apartment-style space off the sunroom--ideal for guests or extended stays. Additional spaces significantly expand the property's versatility. A 26' x 20' garage off the sunroom provides excellent storage, parking, or workshop use. The lower level includes a second oversized 27' x 24' garage along with a large 27' x 20' fireplace room, a separate 15' x 13' room, utility area, and a private suite-style section with kitchen and bath. This level functions beautifully for multigenerational living, recreation, hobbies, or flexible work-from-home needs.
