    What's special

    Set on five private, estate-like acres in picturesque Pownal, just over the Freeport line, this beautifully updated mid-1800s Greek Revival farmhouse offers a rare blend of historic character, modern luxury, and exceptional versatility. Surrounded by open pasture, mature woods, and thoughtfully curated gardens featuring heirloom apple trees, lilacs, and perennial beds, the setting is both tranquil and captivating. The 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home seamlessly pairs timeless architecture with high-quality updates. A brand newly renovated kitchen showcases quartz countertops, a farmhouse sink, new red birch floors, and updated appliances, designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. At the heart of the home, a cozy sitting room with original pumpkin pine floors and a restored beehive oven provides warmth and character. A formal dining room, spacious great room, and beautifully renovated powder room complete the main level. Upstairs offers three well-proportioned bedrooms and a full bath, while the attached 20' x 40' ell presents exceptional potential for expansion, ideal for a future primary suite, guest quarters, or in-law apartment. Outside, a large composite deck overlooks the peaceful landscape, perfect for entertaining or quiet retreat. The impressive 40' x 50' barn with stalls, paddocks, and flexible space offers endless possibilities for equestrian use, hobby farming, or creative reimagining. With extensive system updates and a full-property generator, this home offers turnkey peace of mind. Ideally located just minutes to Freeport and I-295, and an easy drive to Portland, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly special Maine property.
