About This Home

As of June 2024

Nestled beside Lermond's Mill Pond, this stunning farmhouse blends antique allure with contemporary comforts. Ideal for those who appreciate outdoor living, the property features a traditional Maine barn and has been showcased in garden tours, boasting meticulously designed landscapes and mature perennials.

The original cape-style home is anchored by a striking center chimney with three cozy fireplaces, ensuring warmth throughout Maine's diverse seasons. The kitchen is well-appointed, centrally located between the spacious family room, formal dining room, and a cozy living room. The expansive owner's suite, a private haven separate from the main house, includes its own deck, an elegant bar, a reading/office nook, and a large closet room. Multiple outdoor living areas offer tranquil pond views and include a separate vegetable garden and an outdoor garage/shed—ideal for hobbies or as a personal retreat.

Additionally, a spacious apartment on the property provides an opportunity to offset your mortgage or host guests, adding both flexibility and value to this exquisite home.

With its rich history, welcoming features, and peaceful setting, this Union farmhouse is a true gem for those who treasure heritage and seek a tranquil lifestyle.
