This unique one level home has been lovingly maintained in a beautiful and natural setting as both a home and a 5-Star Airbnb. Located above the Penobscot River with expansive views, it is accessible to the shore by an abutting trail through rolling fields. The house is cozy and eclectic and conveniently accessible to Bucksport, which has a grocery, restaurants, cool shops, a lovely downtown theater, and a marina. The surrounding towns of Belfast and Castine are +/-20 miles away and it is less than an hour to Camden and Bangor and about an hour to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. This cozy home has 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths and the laundry all on one floor, along with a dining room that has sliding doors to the back deck, a convenient kitchen and a living room with a warm and cozy pellet stove. It has been updated with new and refinished flooring, including beautiful hardwood and pine, a pellet stove, and metal roof. The back deck looks over the fields and the river as well as a small barn, multiple fruit trees, and there is an outdoor fire pit with an amazing view. There are many places to hike, cross country ski, fish and explore at nearby Sandy Point Beach, Great Pond Mountain Wildlands, the Craig Brook Fish Hatchery and multiple surrounding lakes and ponds. Historic Fort Knox and the Penobscot Bridge & Observatory, which has the tallest bridge observation tower in the world, are only minutes away. Priced to sell! Make this special property your own!
