Property Details
WELCOME TO LEDGE HOUSE, designed by renowned architects Theodore and Theodore. The home, a finalist in the 2006 AIA Maine Design Awards, is a spectacular example of sustainable design taking advantage of the sunlight throughout the day. The 5-acre parcel includes the new
installation of a habitat hedgerow - an ecological garden designed by Larkspur Design of Portland. The expansive windows and slider provide an up-close view of the new landscape to the south.
The east facing kitchen with new appliances opens to a new screened porch for early morning or evening dining. The open floor plan on the first floor has concrete floors with radiant heat which provides warmth in the winter and natural cooling in the summer. The living room features a wood
burning fireplace and opens to a newly enclosed second screened porch to the west for daytime or evening. The first floor of the ''ell'' may act as a guest wing with full bath, office, den or studio with a 2nd floor loft. The second floor has three bedrooms. The primary bedroom has an ensuite bathroom. The second and third bedrooms share a balcony and a Jack and Jill bathroom.
Construction materials include cypress wood for the siding and first floor ceiling, a standing seam metal roof, solar hot water collectors, Loewen Canadian fir windows, radiant heat and the addition of new flat-panel radiators to the second floor bedrooms. The bathrooms all feature radiant floor heat.
Other recent improvements include a 1 1⁄2 car garage with an extended overhang, a whole house generator, a new high efficiency boiler, Cado shelving installed in the living room, 2 screened porches, and more. See complete feature list.
Located in the Newtown settlement where one can walk to Squirrel Point Light and the Bald Head Nature Conservancy Preserve, and Arrowsic's new canoe/kayak launch on the Back River. All within 10 minutes of historic Bath, 15 minutes to Reid State Park and 45 minutes to Portland.
