About This Home

As of February 2022

Presented for sale is an opportunity to own a 2-bedroom ranch home near the Sebasticook River in Benton, Maine. This 1236 sqft home consists of a mudroom, enclosed front porch, eat in kitchen, living room, sunroom, 2 double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The sunroom has windows facing east, south, and west so is an ideal place to enjoy the sunrises and mother nature's spectacular sunsets. The property also enjoys 2 full basements, the smaller of the 2 was an added with the addition of the sunroom, the main basement consists of 3 rooms and an additional toilet for those that just can't prize themselves away from a project. Both daylight basements have walk-out doors to the rear yard. The lot contains 0.74 open acres, recently surveyed with markers in place. Other features of the property include dual heating systems, and a double garage with a paved driveway for up to 4 vehicles. As mentioned, the home has 2 heating systems, the first is an oil fed boiler that controls both the heating and hot water supply, but if you prefer wood, the second system is hot air, fed from a custom-built wood furnace. There is also an electric water heater, ideal for use in the summer to save on oil costs. The double garage includes a workshop to the rear, great for anyone who wants to get their hands dirty. For those hunters out there, the workshop could also be used to hang your kills due to the drain in the floor and cold storage room. Now let's talk location, being near the Sebasticook River is a perk, having the sunsets and sunrises is great, but being in a semi-rural setting within close proximity to Fairfield, Waterville and the I-95 is just another tick to this property's list of features. Come see this home, who knows, it may just be what you're looking for.
