Welcome to the historic Old Swett Farm, set on 5.35 acres in rural Southern Maine--just 45 minutes from Portland and 35 minutes to the Portland Jetport--offering the perfect balance of peaceful country living and convenient access to amenities.
Located in East Waterboro, an area known for its lakes and trail systems, this property provides year-round recreational opportunities and is just a short drive to Ossipee Lake, with views of Ossipee Hill right from the property.
The c.1860 Greek Revival farmhouse offers over 2,000 square feet with 3+ bedrooms, including a convenient first-floor bedroom. Upstairs, you'll find the remaining bedrooms along with many additional flexible rooms--perfect for a home office, studio, or guest overflow - ready for your design and vision, allowing buyers to customize and create their ideal home. The home features numerous recent updates to both minor and major systems, including the well, septic system, leach field, heating, plumbing, and fixtures. Heating is provided by both oil and heat pumps.
The property includes a large barn dating back to the 1700s, a secondary shed, a wild blueberry field, and classic New England stone walls throughout. The Swett farm was a local stagecoach stop, carriage repair shop, boarded horses, and raised farm animals. Lots of documented history tied to this property, including the build site of a ship that was later hauled to Kennebunkport.
A rare opportunity to own a piece of local history with thoughtful updates already in place, while still offering room for personalization.
