About This Home

This beautifully maintained property with a very energy efficient home, heated barn with work bench, potting sheds, one with a green house attached, swimmable pond, and beautifully manicured gardens is located in a quiet rural area, convenient to the coast, shopping, services, restaurants, entertainment and much much more. The home built in 1996, was designed to take advantage of solar gain in the winter and insulated enough to keep it cool in the summer. The standing seam metal roof will last for many years and looks as good as the day it was put on. The open floorplan on the first floor gives a feeling of spaciousness with beautiful hardwood floors, Vermont slate on the counter, hearth and chimney and beautiful open beam wood ceilings. The second floor boasts cork floors, a wonderful bathroom with soaking tub and walk-in shower, 2 bedrooms, balcony workspace, sauna, deck and over the garage, a wonderful room that can be used as a playroom, family room, game room, you name it room! There is a spiral stairway up to a 3rd floor space that is finished, bright and has great views from all of the windows. A new deck has been added to the front of the house and is a great place to spend summer evenings. The property is surveyed and the setting is quiet and private. This is a property that you don't want to miss in the heart of Waldo County Maine.
