About This Home

As of August 2025

This wonderful 1850 farmhouse, filled with warmth and charm, is set on 45 acres of pastures and wooded land threaded with trails and several meandering streams. Lovingly cared for over the years, it features a fully renovated kitchen with custom cherry wood cabinetry and beautiful soapstone countertops. The kitchen opens up to a large, cozy family room, off of which is a relaxing four-season sunroom. The formal dining room with fireplace, leads to the library, front parlor and lovely formal entrance and hallway. Upstairs you'll find four bedrooms and two baths, including a primary suite with laundry, as well as a large bonus room. The barn boasts an attached workshop and could have up to six stalls. Originally a dairy farm, for the past almost thirty years this property has been the proud home to llamas, sheep, horses, chickens, numerous dogs and cats and, of course, its current owners. The location, just five minutes to the twin villages of Newcastle and Damariscotta, is convenient to all of beautiful Midcoast Maine.
