About This Home
As of March 2025Beautiful 1890's Farm Home on 10 acres on the outskirts of town! Conveniently located only one mile to downtown Houlton. This home has a perfect mix of old fashioned charm and modern efficiency. Leave your boots and coats in a finished mudroom. The entry into the fully applianced, eat-in kitchen has 3 closets for coats or use as pantry cupboards. The formal dining room has decorative, built in shelves. The living room has a large brick hearth with a wood burning fireplace, which could possibly be converted to a pellet or wood burning insert. Do you need a bedroom on the first level? This has a room which has been used as a bedroom and is close to the full bath with a sit-down shower. OR you could use this space for home office or family room. The laundry room on the main level provides access to the one bay, attached garage, the basement and the back stairs that lead to a space
over the garage that could be finished for man cave or hobby room. Upstairs there are 4 bedrooms, each with good size closets, rare for a home of this vintage. The full bath has a claw leg tub and room to add a stall shower. The home has a metal roof, two brick chimneys, vinyl siding, updated electrical with 200 AMP panel. Propane boiler was installed in 2025, well in 2020 and septic in 2021! There are two sun porches, one on the south and the other on the west side of the home. The 10 acre lot is a mix of open fields and woods. Wildlife is frequently spotted going across the property to the small brook on the southwest corner of the lot. Circular driveway and two small outbuildings. Plenty of room to build a garage or workshop. Schedule your showing soon... this one won't last long!
