About This Home

As of October 2025

Good things come to those who wait—and if you've been dreaming of the quintessential Maine farm, your wait is over! Lovingly cared for by its current owners for over 25 years, this stunning 102-acre property offers a harmonious blend of open fields, orchards, woods, and a tranquil pond—truly a dreamscape.
The solid Cape Cod-style farmhouse exudes timeless charm with wide pine floors, period moldings, a welcoming entry hall, and a cozy fireplace. The home offers three bedrooms and one-and-a-half baths, with a beautifully renovated kitchen and adjacent sitting room, plus updated bathrooms. Upstairs is full of potential—bring your creative ideas, knowing that major updates like the roof, foundation, and systems are already complete. Outside, the mature trees and lovingly cultivated gardens offer not just beauty, but nourishment. Enjoy flowers, fruits, berries, asparagus, and more—all grown with organic practices maintained by the current owners. A portion of the land is enrolled in tree growth and will convey with deed restrictions to preserve its natural beauty for generations to come. Don't miss this rare opportunity to become the next steward of a truly magical Maine homestead.
