About This Home

As of August 2025

Just imagine having your own 'Private Paradise' on 12 private acres that began as a 'sheep farm'. This uniquely styled post & beam chalet cabin has 3 levels of living all with gorgeous views of the surrounding countryside. The upper level has a spacious primary bedroom suite complete with a full bath and jetted tub. The middle level has the open kitchen and living room with a wood stove, bedroom, full bath, vaulted ceiling, large windows and opens to an expansive 6-foot deck surrounding over half of the cabin. Lower level has a large living area also with views, laundry room, craft room, furnace room, full bath and outside access. Cabin is heated with a fairly new OHW furnace and has a generator backup system in place. A large building on the property offers 2812 sq ft of storage which was used for the sheep farming operation. This building has a cement floor and would make great storage for Snow sleds, ATV's, farm equipment or farm animals. Various apple trees are in the past pasture area which attracts the local wildlife. Another 12 x 28 foot out-building, closer to the cabin, could be used for smaller farm animals. This property is nestled between 2 pristine cold-water recreational lakes, Timoney and Spaulding. Just 15 minutes from Houlton via Interstate 95. A once in a lifetime opportunity to self-exist in this private ''cabin homestead'' in beautiful Northern Maine. ''The way Life was meant to be''. This property is being sold ''AS IS'' Just add your finishing touches.
