Nestled into the countryside on the banks of the Kennebec River as it flows south to the Atlantic Ocean, Ames Farm is an idyllic and private retreat set on 12.8± acres of open fields surrounded by over 100 acres of conserved land. The circa 1780's homestead with separate guest quarters underwent a complete renovation in 1994 and enjoys sweeping views over the fields to the river. The farm's substantial barn presents an opportunity for a variety of uses limited by only one's imagination. Ames Farm is located on the Kennebec River just north of Merry Meeting Bay, a confluence of 6 rivers. The rivers are well known for their outstanding fishing of striped bass, Atlantic salmon and short-nose sturgeon. The town of Woolwich and surrounding villages provide numerous nature preserves for hiking and opportunities to enjoy the region's abundance of wildlife. Historic Bath, Maine with specialty shops and the Maine Maritime Museum is 10 miles from the farm. Brunswick with its numerous shops, restaurants, private airport, hospital and Bowdoin College is 17 miles away. The ever-vibrant City of Portland with its nationally recognized restaurants, cultural offerings, airport and hospitals is 43 miles from the property.
