This tastefully restored and renovated 19th century Cape sits at the center of historic China Village, a short walk from public access to beautiful China Lake. Built in 1826, this house has been lovingly maintained and improved, from its original pine floors, to its airy rooms and architect-designed addition, to its extensive perennial gardens and stone walls. The first floor features a formal living room with working marble fireplace, a comfortable family room, a library with floor-to-ceiling bookcases, sunny formal dining room, bathroom with tile and glass walk-in shower, and spacious screened porch. The kitchen features a slate sink, full original pantry, updated appliances and woodstove. Upstairs are four sleeping areas, a new laundry, and an office. New full bath is adjacent to primary bedroom. Two bedrooms feature original barrel vault ceilings. A back stairway leads to a mudroom, and the attached woodshed and barn provide space for a compact car, a workshop, and extensive second-floor storage. Horse stalls and grain bin remain of the barn's original use. All of this is complemented by recently updated mechanical systems, including a high-efficiency oil-fired boiler and heat-pump hot water heater. This gracious and spacious home offers an opportunity to enjoy life in a classic lakeside Maine village with its neighborly and recreational benefits, all within easy commuting distance to Waterville, Augusta and Belfast. China is part of the RSU18 (Messalonskee) school district, and also allows for school choice for high school students.
