Don't miss this once in a lifetime opportunity to become the steward of one of Bath's most historic homes. Located in the heart of Bath & within walking distance to downtown, The Fogg Mansion, ca. 1852, is a classic Italianate with hip roof, small eyebrow windows, and heavy trim with ornamental brackets under the eaves. Gaze across Linden St to Library Park with its beautiful landscaping, old trees, stone benches, gazebo and centerpiece Spirit of the Sea fountain. Granite steps with low maintenance planting usher you into the front entry with cast iron railings which are original to the house. Period details include: 10.5 ft ceilings, marble mantles and ornate trim & crown molding. As you enter the formal entryway with grand staircase you're invited into the large living room offering ample opportunities for merriment with space enough for a large sofa, grand piano & much more. Revel in the ease of entertaining in the formal dining room or savor morning coffee or evening drinks on the balcony — both just off the kitchen. The open kitchen awaits your vision & upgrades, features built-ins with the original cutting board & opens to the spacious mudroom, laundry & full bath. Enjoy 1st-floor-living in the 1st floor bedroom just steps away from the kitchen, laundry, dining & living area. The ornate front staircase carries you to the second floor where the spacious primary bedroom, large spare bedroom & full bath await. A short, 2nd floor hallway leads to what could serve as an in-law suite or guest quarters complete with its own living/sitting area, full bathroom, & staircase down to the laundry room/entry. On the 3rd floor you'll find a home theater room ready for your viewing pleasure & a partially finished living area that could serve as an entertainment space, home studio or play room. Just 2 min to Bath's waterfront & Kennebec Marina, 14 min to Maine St Brunswick, 28 min to Downtown Wiscasset, 27 min to Popham Beach & Reid State Park and 40 min to Portland.
