Located in Bath's desirable north end on historic Washington Street, ''The Magoun/Page Estate,'' circa 1820's, is a quintessential colonial-style cape. Symmetrical design, a characteristic steeply-pitched gable roof and a large center chimney define its classic architecture. The property boasts 250' of water frontage with a private deep-water dock, offering direct access to the Kennebec River. A cobblestone path leads you to the wraparound farmer's porch and cozy brick patio -- perfect for greeting and entertaining guests. Inside, the efficient easterly-facing, eat-in kitchen overlooks the water and features a bay-window breakfast nook. A few steps lead to the dining room, where expansive water views complement a kitchen passthrough and a convenient laundry closet. The spacious living room features a fireplace with period mantle and bay window overlooking the water and flows seamlessly into the adjoining sitting room -- offering an open, inviting space for gatherings. Just beyond, the formal entryway with built-in storage opens to the front parlor, complete with another fireplace and adjacent wood storage box, echoing the home's rich heritage. The first floor also includes a full bath with built-in storage and soaking tub. Upstairs, the primary bedroom offers picturesque water views, dual walk-in closets, and built-in shelving. An adjacent smaller bedroom with built-in storage is ideal for a nursery or home office, while across the hall, two spacious bedrooms await. A linen closet, shared reach-in closet, and a full bath with soaking tub complete the second floor. The unfinished basement provides generous storage and potential for additional living space. Outside, low-maintenance perennial gardens showcase lilacs, hydrangeas, and rhododendron, adding to the home's enduring appeal.
