Hello-
Everyone says you should focus on the positive and ignore the haters. I’ve listened to my owners over the years (and their friends when they visit), and here’s a list of the top 5 best things about me:
1. My bathroom. I could go on for hours about my main bathroom. My current owners spent countless hours designing (and re-designing..) a timeless, classic looking bathroom. I have a double (yup, two people) claw foot tub complete one of those little telephone-style shower handles!
Not only does it look awesome, but it makes cleaning a breeze. Did I mention there’s a walk-in shower with TWO shower heads?
One is removable (for easy cleaning of the shower) and adjustable (for shorties.) The best part? There is NO door on it. No glass to try to keep free of dirty finger prints and soap scum. And the color for the entire bathroom? It’s Halcyon Green from Sherwin Williams. A nice, soothing blue/green. That’s how I’d describe it.
2. My kitchen. Where to start? Quartz countertops that are the perfect color for hiding those little messes that you just don’t have time to clean daily! Tile floor that, uh, is ALSO the perfect color for hiding messes! It’s kind of like my current owners were trying to keep it easy to maintain…
Double ovens…Do you even know how awesome that is? Not only can your house now be the Thanksgiving spot, but you can bake an entire wedding cake in a few short hours! (this has been done!) Or, to keep it simple, make dessert and dinner at the same time so those cookies can be done and cooled by the time you’re done eating (this also has been done!) Storage…
I have 3 full-door-size pantries. My current owner did the math and that is over 60 square feet of extra storage! Not only can you store your food, but your breadmaker, blender, food processor, Kitchen-aid mixer..all those extra things you rarely use!
And, the final most awesome feature…I have a gas range in the island with a built-in downdraft! So, not only do you have the BEST method of cooking available, but there are also two seats in the island where you can pretend you have your own cooking show in front of a small audience! (this, too, has been done..)
3. My location. Did you know you can WALK to the BEACH from here? Or to some of the fine eating establishments that downtown Winthrop has to offer – Mia Lina’s, Winthrop House of Pizza (or they deliver!) Maranacook Grill, Full Court Deli. Would you rather shop? Visit Everything Kids Consignment store. Interested in hiking? A path just next door leads you up to the High School and Middle school. From there you can use the Roger Guerrette public trail. Beautiful in every season. I have SO much to say about what Winthrop has to offer, it’s going to be my next post!
4. My land. I have 2.28 acres of land, including a very flat backyard…..
for playing soccer, planting a garden, running around in circles like it’s a track (if you want to tire out the kids!), trying to fly an x-wing kite….
There are blackberry bushes, raspberry bushes and rhubarb patches spread throughout my backyard. There’s a great little tree/small forest area where I’ve seen some lovely little fairy houses being built. (never seen any fairies, though..) Once I even had a windmill built in my backyard..until the uh, WIND knocked it down…
5. My size. In 2400 square feet, I have three bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs….
an office or nursery and bathroom downstairs….
I have a mudroom, a dining room and a living room as well as an eat-in bar in the kitchen.
I also have an attached two story workshop with cabinets, counters and lots of electrical outlets!
