In this housing market it can certainly be difficult to find that perfect home for your growing family. Sometimes you find exactly what you're looking for but it's gone before you can even get in to see it. Other times you are able to see it but find out that your offer was rejected because someone else bid just a little higher than you.

And while we can't help you with many of those problems, we can certainly steer you in the direction of some of the most gorgeous homes that are springing up for sale here in Central Maine. Over the last several weeks we've shown you raised ranches in China, lake front properties in Winthrop, and even hidden gem mansions in Winslow.

Today we're taking you to an incredible property in the heart of Hallowell, Maine. Situated at 49 Middle Street, this home was built back in 1820. And while the year says vintage, the ammonites say modern.

This home boasts five large bedrooms and offers 5.5 bathrooms including a shower built for royalty. The house sits on a .53 acre lot and is surrounded by sprawling gardens and a courtyard that seems right out of a movie.

With cathedral ceilings, a spiral staircase and enough entertaining spots to host a party with all your closest friends and family, it's no wonder why this beautiful home is listed with an asking price of $649,900.

With 20% down ($129,980), your estimated mortgage payment would be about $3,148. Want to go in with no money down? A thirty year fixed mortgage would run you about $4,250 a month. But, as the old adage goes, you definitely get what you pay for.
