Down a country road in Pownal, surrounded by gardens, woods and a rolling landscape, sits a house that is anything but ordinary. The sellers loved the character of the old farmhouse, but knew it could be better - more open, functional and suited to modern life. They kept some of the old treasures and weren't afraid to rethink the rest. Exposed beams, old brick and intimate rooms meet tall ceilings, expansive windows, clean lines and natural materials. Oak cabinetry and wide-plank floors bring warmth to the kitchen, while its generous scale gives it real architectural presence. Big windows frame the gardens and fill the house with light. Throughout, old and new feel happily connected. Before work began on the main house, the sellers tackled the barn. Upstairs, they created a beautifully designed studio space with tall ceilings and a kitchenette, and they lived there during construction. The nearly finished first floor creates even more possibilities - a serious studio or workshop, multigenerational living, or both. A large side shed adds room for tools, bikes, equipment, and projects. Outside, the two acres are as much a part of the story as the house and barn. The broad wraparound porch overlooks established gardens, fruit trees, berries, and a proper vegetable garden. There's an outdoor shower, woodshed, lawn, and woods - places to gather, grow, or disappear. And then morning arrives; the sunrise moves across the gardens and pours through the windows. The house catches that first sunlight and carries it throughout the day. Rural, independent and decidedly Maine, Pownal feels exactly like the right place for 13 Lawrence. The mountain biking trails of Bradbury Mountain are close by, while Yarmouth and Freeport are near enough for morning coffee, dinner with friends, or an easy trip into town. 13 Lawrence Road resists easy categorization. Part old farmhouse, part modern design, part country retreat, and all around wonderful.
