If you are looking for land that you can disappear on for days on end, see no one, answer to no one, yet be close to town, you have found your 72+ acres right here!
Yes, the farmhouse is original, and well-maintained. Sleeps plenty, a room for everyone in the family with a large primary bedroom on the 1st floor and 4 more bedrooms on the 2nd floor! One of the 2nd floor bedrooms used to be the primary, so you could all sleep on the same floor and convert the 1st floor room back into a den or home office.
Insulations has been added, both in the attic as well as the basement. The furnace is about 25 years old, so plenty of life remaining in this regularly-serviced system. There are also woodstoves in a few places, if you enjoy this.
The kitchen is a large eat-in farmhouse kitchen and the living room is spacious yet cozy. There is a deck off of this room, easy to BBQ and enjoy the yard & fire pit!
There is much to say about the outbuildings. Again, older, but neat as a pin, well-maintained, a real pride of ownership throughout the family history of ownership (over 50 years!). Park your car under cover, store all of your yard tools, add a pony, horse, or donkey to the mix, there are two stalls! Zoned for farm animals.
Over 72+ acres is sweetly wrapped by more than half a mile of the Madawaska Stream. Not a flooding type of river and far from the house, this stream runs all year, a great opportunity to fish, fiddle-head, canoe or kayak right from home! Originally a gravel pit, the family has crafted trails for year-round use throughout the whole parcel. X-Country ski, snowshoe, walk, bike, ATV on your own land - only minutes from 3 grocery stores and Cary Medical Center! High speed Internet is an option here also!
This family raised studious and hard-working children - come feel that steadfast vibe in your next home!
