Step back in time with this spacious 4-5 bedroom home in a small rural town, just 30 minutes from the city of Bangor and 15 minutes from Lincoln. The original home of a long-time local, beloved doctor, was built in 1959. Quality built with many of the 1950s (retro) character features. Hardwood floors, gas (glass face) stove in the Living room. The windows and the electric have all been updated. A full service, on demand generator, finished basement with four rooms, once the waiting and exam rooms. Well landscaped 1.7 acres, two car garage with attached room for gardening preparations. Although the river has a steep slope, the boat landing is conveniently located just down the street. A bonus is the eagles that have taken up residency in the pine tree behind the house, where you can enjoy seeing newborns being fed, learn to fly, and have your own wildlife show every day.
