Step back in time and discover the kind of Maine homestead that simply cannot be recreated. Tucked away on 20+/- beautiful acres, this antique farmhouse dating back to the 1830's is overflowing with warmth, history, and authentic New England character. Conveniently located between Lagrange and Howland, and just moments from the I-95 exit, you can enjoy peaceful country living while still having an easy commute to Bangor.
From the moment you walk inside, you'll notice the details that make antique homes so special -- gorgeous exposed beams, incredible pumpkin pine floors, cozy rooms filled with charm, and a working antique cookstove that feels like a piece of living history. The screened-in porch with its summer kitchen is the perfect place for morning coffee, late summer dinners, or simply relaxing while listening to the sounds of nature around you.
Outside, the land offers the true Maine lifestyle so many dream about. Heritage apple trees, garden space, lovely woods for exploring, and your own supply of firewood right from the property. Wildlife is plentiful, with deer and turkeys frequently seen throughout the acreage, making this an excellent hunting spot or private outdoor retreat.
The barn, while in need of restoration, still stands proudly and is simply waiting for the right person with vision and creativity to bring it back to life. Whether you dream of a workshop, hobby farm, storage for equipment and toys, or restoring it to its former glory, the potential here is undeniable
The home does need work, but it is livable as-is, allowing you to comfortably reside there while making improvements along the way. With its efficient heating options including wood and pellets, this property offers affordable country living with endless possibilities.
If you've been searching for an authentic Maine farmhouse with soul, acreage, character, privacy and potential, this could be the special property you've been waiting for.
