Property Description
156 Main Shore Road is a well-maintained century home offering a bright interior, solid updates, and a convenient location just minutes from town, the Yarmouth Regional Hospital, and within the sought-after Meadowfields School district. Inside, the home features a spacious, functional layout with a vaulted kitchen that stands out for its natural light, abundant cabinetry, and exposed beam detail. The kitchen connects directly to the dining and living areas, creating an open and practical main living space. A wood stove anchors the living room, while a full-length sunroom provides additional living space ideal for plants, reading, or a quiet sitting area. The home is filled with natural light throughout the day, particularly in the main living areas and sunroom. Character has been preserved throughout with original trim, wide-plank flooring, and clean, neutral finishes that keep the home feeling fresh while maintaining its history. Upstairs, the home offers well-sized bedrooms and a simple, efficient layout that continues the character of the property. Key updates include a metal roof, seamless gutters, and a newer oil tank. The heating system offers flexibility and efficiency with a heat pump, oil-fired boiler as the primary heat source, and a wood stove for supplemental heat. The property is serviced by a drilled well with a strong water supply. Outside, the property features a paved driveway, fenced yard area, and a large two-level barn that offers excellent storage, workshop space, or potential for future use. This property offers a strong combination of character, usable space, and important upgrades in a location that remains close to all town amenities.
