Welcome to a one of a kind historic homestead on 50 beautiful acres with 1,000 feet of frontage on the Sebasticook River. This classic Cape Cod home was moved to its current location over a century ago using oxen and rollers and still retains its original charm, with 3-4 bedrooms, a spacious dining room, and a kitchen featuring stunning 3 inch thick live edge countertops. The property offers rich Bangor Loam soil, ideal for gardening or small scale farming. A four plot rotation system has supported thriving organic crops, while the surrounding forest provides plenty of firewood. Enjoy kayaking, fishing, and swimming from your own shoreline, or simply relax in total privacy, bordered by a bog and conservation land. Located in Ripley, a food sovereign town, roadside farm stands are allowed, opening up homesteading opportunities. Whether you're looking for a private retreat, working farm, or a peaceful lifestyle close to nature, this property is ready to write its next chapter.
