Property Description
There's a certain magic to 205 Beach Street—one that announces itself the moment you cross the threshold. The oversized front door swings open, revealing a foyer flooded with natural light and anchored by a staircase that feels more like sculpture than structure. Its carved wooden banister, substantial and storied, sets the tone: this is a home where craftsmanship matters. Built in 1877 and recently reborn through a deeply personal renovation, this Saco New Englander offers that rare alchemy—historic soul with modern intention. The owners, immersed in Maine's finest trades by profession, brought their expertise and heart home. The result is not ''another reno''—it's a reawakening. 9 ft ceilings lift the main floor, where crisp white walls meet warm millwork and wood floors echo with quiet elegance. The living, dining, and kitchen spaces flow effortlessly together. A pantry and mudroom combo adds utility w/out compromise, and a custom-built sunroom on the back of the house bathes in sunlight, a perfect spot for slow mornings, remote work, or evening tea. A large 1st fl bedroom with a scaled walk-in closet offers flexibility for guests or aging-in-place living. Upstairs, 3 more bedrooms await—all with walk-in closets—along with a shared full bath and a primary suite that stuns with its spa-inspired en-suite. The 3rd floor is a retreat ideal for an au pair, artist's studio, or playroom, filled with light and creative energy. The home features 200-amp service, spray foam, five-head heat pump system, and a new roof. The exterior was freshly painted—house and detached garage alike—and a brand-new fence encloses the backyard. There's hardscaping in place and generous space to shape a dream garden. Set in the heart of ''Sunny Saco''—a vibrant city known for its beaches, neighborly charm, and commuter-friendly access to Portland/Boston—205 Beach Street offers a sense of rootedness with true turn-key ease.
