236 Pennellville Road, Brunswick, ME, 04011

Steeped in Brunswick's boat building heritage is Pennellville. Thomas Pennell and his family of 5 sons and 5 daughters established this community and built a legacy over 2 centuries, constructing over 90 tall ships for transatlantic trade! The Pennell House at 236 Pennellville, affectionately referred to as ''the little white cottage'', has been lovingly preserved over the years to create an elegant and charming home. Entering the home through the light filled heated mudroom gives way to an impressive center staircase showcasing the remarkable skill of the original builders. The front living room is lined with windows creating a bright and airy feel, featuring original pine floors and a beautiful fireplace, for a cozy, yet grand space for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with custom cabinetry, high-end appliances, and ample counter space. Adjacent to the kitchen, the formal dining room provides an appealing setting for meals, corner cabinet hutch and French doors leading to the side yard. The westerly wing added in the early 90s is a great addition and offers first floor living, vaulted ceilings, private entrance and full basement. Upstairs, 2 sizable bedrooms each boast unique character- the primary bedroom illustrates an effective use of space, utilizing built-in drawers and a generous closet space stretching the length of the wall. The bathroom features a standing shower stall, frameless glass, pedestal sink and clawfoot cast iron soaking tub. The bonus room is ideal for crafting, spacious and brimming with storage/closets, or relax here in the built in day beds. Outside the grounds are magnificent, a gardeners paradise! Original Post and beam Barn, new 2 car garage, protected pastoral views, mature forests cradle the peace and tranquility that makes Pennellville so special. On the edge of middle bay, there is plenty of ocean activity one can enjoy, a short ride to Brunswick center and amenities
