34 Foreside Road

Built in 1905 as a ''seaside cottage'', this adored Cumberland Foreside home sits on 2 peaceful acres along one of southern Maine's most coveted coastal roads. Gracefully transformed over the past 5 years while retaining every ounce of its original charm, the home welcomes you to its grand living room with hand hewn beams and a wood burning fireplace. The sun drenched office offers a cozy window seat and wonderful bookshelves. Through the arched doorways is the dining room, opening effortlessly to the rear sitting room with its woodstove insert and walls of windows. The kitchen is the true showstopper, with a bank of windows, fine fixtures, high end appliances, and slate radiant heat floors, integrated with stunning designer details throughout. The back wing of the first floor has been renovated with beautiful built-ins and a charming powder room to create an eminently functional space in high style. The screened-in covered breezeway leads to the newly rebuilt two-car garage. Upstairs, 5 bedrooms and 2 full baths provide ample space, with flexibility for work from home or fitness spaces. Outside, delight in all of Maine's natural glory, with sugar maples, ancient oaks, and shady hemlocks forming a playful grove beyond the fenced in backyard, with plenty of space for additional accessory structures as desired. An enchanting property, offering a lifestyle worthy of pursuit.
