This early 1900s New England farmhouse blends vintage charm with the opportunity to make it truly your own. Set on .6 open acres, the property features 3-4 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and a spacious layout ideal for a range of lifestyles. A large wrap-around porch with intricate woodwork welcomes you to a home filled with original character-including a tin ceiling in the living room and timeless details throughout.
The first floor offers a bedroom, full bath, and laundry for convenient one-level living, while upstairs provides additional bedrooms and a half bath. A detached garage/barn adds rustic appeal and plenty of room for storage, hobbies, or creative use.
Out back, the yard is dotted with a graceful willow and an old apple tree-offering a peaceful outdoor setting with space to relax, garden, or play. Located just minutes from the public boat landing, it's a great location for those who enjoy access to the water and rural Maine living.
Whether you're drawn to the craftsmanship, the history, or the potential, this home is ready for your personal touch.
