About This Home
As of October 2025For the first time in 65 years, one of Yarmouth's most iconic farmhouses is being offered to the market. Tucked within one of Maine's most sought-after towns and neighborhoods, this timeless property spans 2.6 acres of rolling fields, lush gardens, and a landscape graced with lupines, wild raspberries, and a legacy of beekeeping. At the heart of the home is a rare treasure: one of the largest known beehive ovens. The kitchen, remodeled with care, blends this historic centerpiece with modern comforts to create a space that is both impressive and inviting. Just off the kitchen, a welcoming dining room provides the perfect setting for gatherings and meals shared with family and friends. The first floor also offers a generous den with a propane fireplace, a living room with a wood-burning hearth, an office, and a full bath with a shower. Upstairs, you'll find four bedrooms, a half bath, and a space for a future primary bathroom. Beyond the home, the red barn recalls its days sheltering a horse and pony, now serving as garage space for two cars and offering abundant possibilities. At the edge of the property, an old beekeeping shed stands as a quiet reminder of the land's long and fruitful story. With its wraparound porch made for lingering summer evenings and its grounds that seem to come alive with each season, this farmhouse is more than a residence—it is a piece of living history, awaiting its next steward.
