OPEN HOUSE FRI 5-6 and SAT 11-12. Privacy, quality, and convenience come together HERE. Tucked away on a dead-end street and bordering a conservation area, this home offers a setting that's increasingly difficult to find. From the moment you pull into the driveway, you'll notice the mature perennials, peaceful surroundings, and sense of privacy--all while being just minutes from downtown Waterville, I-95, Thomas College, shopping, restaurants, and more. Designed for single-level living, the home has been well maintained and offers quality finishes: rich hardwood and tile floors, oversized windows, arched doorways, and a well-designed floor plan. The custom kitchen offers a wide array of features including soft-close cabinetry, custom cut Corian countertops, a built-in wall oven and microwave, JennAir gas cooktop, generous pantry and cabinet storage, oversized center island, and abundant counter space. The primary suite is another feature that stands out. In addition to its private full bathroom, it includes an oversized laundry room that provides flexibility. Keep it as a dedicated laundry and storage space, or explore the potential to create an expansive walk-in closet or dressing room. Then step outback onto the maintenance-free composite deck overlooking the private backyard. With conservation land directly behind the property, you'll enjoy an added level of privacy. Beyond its beautiful finishes, this home offers practical updates including a heat pump for year-round comfort, a newer furnace and hot water heater, and an oversized attached two-car garage with massive storage space. The full unfinished basement provides even more room for storage, hobbies, a workshop, or future expansion. It's often the details that make a house feel like home, and 11 Franklin Street is full of them. From its quiet neighborhood setting and private backyard to its thoughtful layout, quality craftsmanship, and numerous updates, this is a home that offers so much more.
