About This Home

As of January 2025

Discover the charm of this expansive Victorian farmhouse on an impressive 40-acre estate complete with an historic barn that adds to the property's allure. The lovingly restored 1870 farmhouse boasts timeless details including large windows, spacious rooms with tall ceilings and wide plank wood floors, and a welcoming front porch as well as modern conveniences such as a Jacuzzi tub and custom tile. This home is a sanctuary for those seeking both tranquility and space with bucolic views. The grounds offer endless possibilities - from gardening and outdoor entertaining to exploring nature trails and enjoying serene sunrises. The historic barn provides ample storage or can be transformed into a workshop or event space. Just five minutes to the darling Belgrade Village and 15 minutes to Maine's capital city and Route 95, this is a desirable and convenient location among the chain of seven lakes that make up the inviting Belgrade Lakes region.
