32 Pearl St, Camden, ME 04843

Property Description

There's a reason Pearl Street is one of Camden Village's most loved addresses and this particular pearl makes an especially good case for it. Tree-lined, quietly residential and leading directly into the heart of the village and waterfront, close enough to walk, bike or simply wander into town while still offering the sense of a true neighborhood. Set on a spacious grassy corner lot, the property feels both established and wonderfully manageable, with mature trees for shade, sunny stretches of lawn and simple gardens that complement rather than consume. An attached garage provides direct entry into the house, while a sunroom and deck create an easy connection between indoors and out. Inside, the home is equal parts traditional and unexpected. Original hardwood floors and dedicated rooms are balanced by an open, comfortable flow. Architectural details give the house a character all its own: a barrel ceiling, good-morning staircase and vaulted, beamed ceilings are among the features rarely found together under one roof. With 4-5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, the house has been updated in the places that matter while preserving the details that make an older Camden home worth having. Particularly useful is a private first-floor suite with its own entrance and bath which lends itself easily to an in-law apartment, guest quarters, an in-home professional office with waiting room, or potential short-term rental use. Lovely without being precious and versatile without sacrificing its sense of home, this property works beautifully for everyday life. And everyday life is something Camden does particularly well. This is not a town that rolls up the streets after Labor Day. The seasons bring waterfront festivals and parades, performances and presentations, winter toboggan races, remarkable food, a thriving downtown and a community that is here year-round. From this particular spot on Pearl Street, you don't simply live close to Camden Village--you become part of its everyday life.
