Property Description
The classic New England homestead you've been waiting for has just been listed for sale, offering a slice of historic rural Maine in a post and beam colonial built circa 1796 and sited on 9.44 acres of fields and woods. Many of the original features have been lovingly preserved.... pumpkin pine wide board flooring, Indian shutters, exposed beams, beehive oven and a massive brick arch in the basement that supports the main chimney for the five original fireplaces. Added to this charm are recent renovations including upgraded kitchen, freshly painted exterior, Andersen replacement windows throughout, new roof shingles in 2015, new 4- bedroom leach field in 2013 and two lined chimneys for Jotul wood stoves. There's even a finished room tucked away in the attic for an office, playroom, or bunk room in the summer. The land offers 2+/- acres with a seasonal pond all enclosed with panel fencing, and 7+/- acres of woodlot where the current owners have blazed many hiking trails and hand-built footbridges over the winding brook. There are over 35 native species of trees and shrubs, including sugar maples, oak, peach and shagbark hickories, high and low bush blueberries, raspberries, elderberries and asparagus patches on the land that was certified organic in 2020 by MOFGA and farmed organically since 2013. Come picture yourself this summer on the screened porch and deck in this beautiful country oasis all within commuting distance to the Jetport, Amtrak, beaches, Costco and all that Portland has to offer. Possibility of enough frontage and acreage for a buildable flagpole lot or accessory dwelling unit. Welcome home!
