LEVANT HOME with COUNTRY CHARM! Enjoy the comfort of an updated home, a peaceful 1.03-acre wooded setting, and convenient access to Bangor. Located on Merrill Street, just off Union Street, this inviting Gambrel-style home offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy country living while keeping your commute to the city to approximately 15-20 minutes. The main living area is upstairs, where an open kitchen and living room create a comfortable gathering space. Sliding doors lead to a spacious front deck overlooking the manicured grounds and mature trees—an ideal spot to relax with a book, enjoy the fresh air, or host a summer barbecue. Two bedrooms with ample closet space and a full bath complete this level. Updates include gray-toned laminate flooring, fresh interior paint, updated shingles and vinyl siding, and a new direct-vent propane wall unit with heat registers serving both floors. The first floor offers a heated one-bay garage, convenient mudroom entry, and a newly added bedroom that could also serve as a home office, den, or bonus room. With useful living space and practical updates, this home offers comfortable, low-maintenance living. Located in the welcoming community of Levant, you'll enjoy a rural setting with shopping, dining, recreation, and everyday services within an easy drive. Nearby opportunities include Hermon Mountain, Hermon Meadow Golf Club, and the shops, restaurants, cultural attractions, and waterfront activities of Bangor. Students attend RSU 87 schools, with high school students attending Hermon High School. If you're considering homeownership as an affordable alternative to renting, this property is worth a look. Enjoy the space, privacy, and convenience of a country setting without being far from town. Ready for its next owner and easy to show—come take a look!
