About This Home
As of April 2021A rare opportunity to live in an historic village along the Sheepscot River, a saltwater estuary of the Atlantic. As offered, the property is composed of a two acre +/- lot to the east of Kings Highway with the residence and barn, and a 1.64 acre +/- waterfront lot to the west of the Kings Highway. The waterfront portion is a grandfathered build-able lot with potential for a dock and float.
The residence was built around 1835 in the Greek Revival style. Its massive post & beam frame is in excellent condition. All the interior spaces have high ceilings and many original details including 5 fireplaces. Two of the second floor bedrooms have ensuite baths. Wonderful natural light illuminates each room.
The attached barn is massive. It features horse stalls, tack & groom's room, and a huge loft for storage. The barn still retains its original slate roof.
Living on the Sheepscot River, you can enjoy boating, canoeing, kayaking fishing, swimming and birdwatching.
From the property its a convenient 10 minute drive to the twin villages of Damariscotta-Newcastle where you will enjoy Skidompha Library, Lincoln Theater, a multitude of restaurants, cafes,, galleries, & town marina,. It is comforting to know that Miles Hospital/Lincoln Heath in Damariscotta is affiliated with Portland's Maine Medical for premier healthcare. Its also just an hour to the Portland Jetport, 45 minutes to Augusta, 30 minutes to Brunswick and 40 minutes to the Camden & Rockland.
