Originally built in 1850, this thoughtfully maintained farmhouse showcases the enduring craftsmanship and charm that define classic New England homes. Offering 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the layout balances comfort, functionality, and historic appeal.
Inside, you'll find warm wood accents and inviting living spaces that reflect the home's heritage. The home has been well cared for over the years, with updates completed by the current owners, while much of the interior maintains a more traditional style--offering an opportunity for further personalization.
An enclosed side porch adds valuable flex space--ideal as a mudroom, seasonal sitting area, or welcoming entry during Maine's colder months. Year-round comfort is supported by multiple heating options, including forced hot air, a wood stove, and two second-floor heat pumps.
Set on approximately 13.6 acres, the property includes a mix of open area near the home and additional land extending behind, creating space for gardening, recreation, or simply enjoying the natural setting. A peaceful farm pond adds to the property's appeal.
A substantial attached two-story shed provides excellent storage for wood, tools, and equipment, complemented by an additional rear shed. The detached two-car garage includes a dedicated workshop space--perfect for projects, hobbies, or extra storage.
Conveniently located just a half mile from the entrance to Sears Island, about 5 miles to Sandy Point Beach, and a short drive to downtown Searsport, the property offers both convenience and access to Midcoast amenities.
Situated at the head of Penobscot Bay, Searsport is known for its maritime heritage, walkable waterfront, and growing energy--featuring a public dock, waterfront park, Penobscot Marine Museum, library, shops, and an evolving mix of dining and local businesses.
A classic farmhouse with lasting appeal--ready for its next chapter.
