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, The Capt. Isaac Merritt House, ca. 1854, is a classic Italianate-style home. It features a characteristic low-pitched hip roof, wide overhanging eaves, cupola, bay... windows, quoins, and heavy trim on the doorways, cornice, corner boards & windows. The home boasts high ceilings —11.5' on the first floor and 10.5' on the second floor—with tall windows and doors. Enter at the front, between the paired Doric columns into the grand foyer with solid mahogany stairway banister & walnut balusters. To the right is a parlor with a floor of alternating mahogany and birch. To the left, a double parlor with its original chandeliers. Enjoy the ease of entertaining in the dining room with extensive paneling that flows into the south-facing, window-lined sunroom. Continue into the butler's pantry with its floor-to-ceiling cabinets, copper sink, and marble floor & countertops. The fabulous kitchen features stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, custom cabinets, & large island with marble countertop. On the second floor, you'll find 6 bedrooms and 3 full baths & a mural painted by Glenn Chadbourne, recreating an 1873 bird's-eye view of Bath. On the third floor, you'll discover what was once the ballroom that has since been converted into additional living space with kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms & sleeping quarters. Bring your vision to the detached carriage house offering additional living space, owner's quarters, home office/studio etc. Outside, you will notice Solomon's Seal, Hosta, Rhododendron, Hydrangea, & Lilac bushes. The prolific vine is Boston Ivy. The possibilities are endless for this incredibly versatile piece of history. Just 4 min to Bath's waterfront & Kennebec Marina, 13 min to Brunswick, 17 min to Downtown Wiscasset, 24 min to Popham Beach & Reid State Park & 38 min to Portland.
