I'm thrilled to present 10 Belmont Street - a sun-filled home in the heart of Douglas Park, one of Brunswick's most beloved neighborhoods. Just blocks from Bowdoin College and lively downtown, this property offers more than flexible living space - it invites you to slow down and relax. Purchased in 2010 by a quality-focused builder, the home has had thoughtful foundational upgrades completed with care. Though the main house is a college rental, the behind-the-scenes work is solid: original windows replaced, electrical updated, new gas heating installed, and a two-story addition finished in 2016. The great room is at the heart of the house, ready for your creative touch. Imagine reworking the kitchen and adding a gas fireplace between the tall windows - waiting to anchor a space for everyday living and gatherings. Upstairs are four good-sized bedrooms. The two sunny front rooms could easily combine into one expansive retreat. Just off the living room, a sweet sunlit room sparkles with possibility - a peaceful yoga spot or the coziest library nook. Alongside, a private driveway leads to a 2012 - built Carriage House with an oversized well insulated garage/workshop below and a bright, energy-efficient apartment above. With large windows, a private entrance, and a secluded backyard, it's perfect for guests, rental income, or your own sanctuary. There's room to add a deck or patio - outdoor space made for string lights, shared meals, and lively conversation. The neighborhood offers tree-lined sidewalks, a welcoming community, and easy walking or biking to all that matters. A few blocks away, the Lower Mall Park hosts farmers markets, summer concerts, and food trucks that bring the town together. In winter, it transforms into a charming ice rink. Bowdoin enriches life with performances and exhibits, while downtown Brunswick hums year-round with restaurants, shops, and events. Discover the Joy of Living, right at the center of it all. $800,000 Pending
