About This Home

As of September 2025

Spruce Hill Farm offers fairytale country living in a bucolic setting featuring a magnificently restored early 1800s Cape Style Home (4bed/1.5bath) and nearly 50 acres of stunning forests, trails, orchards, fields, fenced pastures, kitchen/perennial gardens, barns, and outbuildings all nestled in Maine's strikingly beautiful Bold Coast region. Featured in the popular video series, Farmhouse Diaries, this incredible and versatile property is ideal for a full-time country lifestyle or as a luxury vacation escape to the great outdoors. The property's charming, historic home has been lovingly restored/updated (new features include clapboard siding, roof, windows, insulation, forced air heat, septic, well, electrical panel etc). The main floor boasts tall ceilings, hand-hewn exposed timbers, original wide-plank wood flooring, living room, large country kitchen, full bath, generous primary bedroom, and mud/laundry room. Upstairs you'll find three more bedrooms, two bonus rooms, and half bath. For outdoor sports/nature/wildlife enthusiasts, an enchanting forest track runs through towering stands of spruce while connecting to a separate dirt track to create endless all-season opportunities for walking, horseback riding, cross country skiing, ATV use, and snowmobiling. Recently operated as a working farm, the grounds feature an impressive, new timber-framed, two-story barn with ample space for animals or business ventures, flexible-use outbuildings, and a 1/2-acre outdoor horse-riding arena. Spruce Hill Farm offers everything for enjoyable country living or vacationing. Yet, it's just 10 minutes from the quaint, oceanfront village of Milbridge with its parks, grocery store, pharmacy, banks, medical center, small restaurants, and theatre/performing arts center. Just 30 minutes to Schoodic Point-Acadia National Park / 1 hour to Bar Harbor, the MDI section of Acadia National Park, Campobello Island in Canada, and Quoddy Head Lighthouse / 1.5 hours to Bangor Int'l Airport.
