About This Home

As of February 2025

Some places are almost too special to put a price on. When you relax on the large porch or look out the master bedroom windows from 22 Betts Rd, your breath can be stolen from you. The elevated view atop the wide-open, multi-acre field and 800 +/- ft of shorefront, allows an expansive view of Swett's Pond and the hills beyond it. Sunrise is spectacular. So are the stars. The modest, mid-century modern cape is well-loved and has been in the process of receiving the gifts of renovation. Improvements include new heating, insulation, bathrooms, upstairs windows, and a fully renovated 2nd floor! See the full list of updates! Upstairs, the large primary suite is a wall of windows overlooking the pond, includes a walkthrough closet, and even has a projector with retractable screen! The main level includes common areas, full bath, one of the two guest bedrooms and a laundry/bonus room. The large deck can be accessed from the kitchen or through sliding doors from the living room. Outside, a wonderful orchard of fruit trees and blueberry bushes has been established on .25 acres near the house and surrounded by deer fence. The open field is gorgeous as-is and could be used for more growing space or animals. If you are looking for peace and serenity, you have found it! 15 minutes to Bangor/Brewer, 20 min to Bucksport, 1 hr to Acadia Nat'l Park. Welcome home!
