339 Essex Street, Bangor, ME 04401

Well cared for New Englander home in a convenient Bangor location. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home has a bedroom, bathroom, and laundry all on the first floor for those needing single-story living. Close to schools, hospitals, parks, everyday errands, restaurants, major shopping, a thriving downtown, and two of the best entertainment venues in Maine. Built in 1900, this three-bedroom, two-bath home offers about 1,040 square feet of finished space and a new roof completed in January 2025. A mix of hardwood, laminate, and tile flooring keeps things beautiful and simple to live with, while a first-floor laundry adds convenience.
The main level has a great functional flow, unlike some other homes built in a similar time period. The mud room with tiled flooring is set up with a washer and dryer hookup. Off the mudroom is the first-floor bath and direct access to the bright and sunny eat-in kitchen, also with tiled floors. Off the kitchen is a spacious living room with hardwood floors and a built-in hutch. There's also a first-floor bedroom with hardwood floors. Upstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms and a second full bath. The heating system is an oil-fired hot-air system, with a newer oil tank installed about two years ago. Outside, an 8×20 deck gives you a spot to unwind, and the attached two-story shed (about 15×21) handles the storage you need for Maine seasons. There's also a walk-up attic space above the kitchen, roughly 15×20, if you've been looking for a future bonus area to finish.
Being in Bangor means your day-to-day is always going to be easy here. The greater Bangor area is the service hub for much of eastern and northern Maine, so you get big-box shopping along the Stillwater, Hogan, and Broadway corridors, quick access to I-95 for regional trips, and two major hospitals in town, Northern Light Eastern Maine Medical Center and St. Joseph Hospital.
