About This Home
Positioned just minutes from Southern Maine's premier beaches and within one of the region's most supply-constrained coastal markets, this 24.8-acre estate represents a rare convergence of lifestyle & long-term land value appreciation. At it's core is a meticulously maintained Victorian residence, rich in architectural character, featuring a handcrafted grand staircase, original tin ceilings & a thoughtfully updated gourmet kitchen with granite surfaces and stainless steel appliances. The home is move-in ready and reflects the historic integrity that continues to attract buyers to the Wells/Kennebunk community. The full unfinished walk-out basement offers ~1,000 sq ft of additional space; ideal for ADU conversion. With both a 66' x 144' indoor arena and a 75' x 200' outdoor arena, the property can support your riding pleasure year-round in a four-season location, a key differentiator in New England.The indoor arena has a flexible 6 stall utility barn that can store farm equipment & hay. The barn offers 8 stalls and a tack room/lounge equipped with a Harmon pellet stove for colder days. The property has 3 pastures complete with 5-6' diameter pressure treated round post fencing with Black Lightning® Poly Coated Cable 'railing' intended for horses and/or a variety of livestock. The property is minutes to the 135-acre Kennebunk Plains Preserve, offering immediate trail connectivity without additional land acquisition as well as enjoyment listening to Branch Brook babbling waters in the northeastern boundary line. Large, contiguous parcels of this size, particularly with water frontage along Branch Brook, are increasingly scarce in Southern Maine. Call today!
