    What's special

    This home is a project brimming with potential nestled along the serene shores of Blue Heron Pond. This quaint 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom abode awaits a visionary owner to breathe new life into its charming mid-century bungalow design. Embrace the simplicity of one-floor living, offering convenience and accessibility. While currently a shell awaiting transformation, this property boasts the essential infrastructure of a private well and septic system, laying the foundation for your dream waterfront retreat. Immerse yourself in the tranquility of waterfront living, where the gentle lapping of water against the shore sets a soothing backdrop for daily life. Enjoy leisurely activities such as fishing, canoeing, and kayaking right from your doorstep, all while marveling at the majestic flight of eagles and the industrious antics of beavers. Conveniently situated with easy access to Bangor, this gem is located on a paved, well-maintained public road, ensuring year-round accessibility. Power at the street further enhances the feasibility of your renovation endeavors, facilitating the realization of your waterfront oasis. While the property presents an exceptional opportunity to own waterfront real estate at a reasonable price point, it is important to note that extensive renovation work is required. With a discerning eye and a touch of creativity, this blank canvas holds the promise of becoming the ultimate waterfront sanctuary - a testament to the enduring allure of Maine's natural beauty. Seize this wonderful opportunity and embark on a journey to transform this diamond in the rough into your own piece of paradise.
