About This Home

Tucked away on 3.52 wooded acres close to town, this 3 bedroom 1 bath Ranch blends Maine charm with thoughtful modern updates. The home features first-floor laundry, a cozy wood stove, and a screened porch for enjoying summer evenings. Recent improvements include two new energy-efficient heat pumps, freshly painted interiors, redone foundation walls, and a new gutter system.

The property itself has been thoughtfully cleaned up and now features a network of walking trails that wind through the woods, leading to a peaceful stream—and even crossing over it. A great find offering convenience, and room to grow, all within minutes of Bucksport's downtown amenities.
