About This Home
Experience the best of both worlds at this charming 1820s Bowdoinham farmhouse, offering a peaceful rural feel on .59 acres while just a short walk from the village, the elementary school, and Bowdoinham Riverfront Park. Once home to a small sheep farm, this 3BR/BA home features historic charm, including wide-plank hardwood floors and exposed beams with modern updates throughout. A beautifully designed kitchen and updated bathrooms blend with the home's original charm, a metal roof and newer systems offer added peace of mind. The flexible floor plan includes the option for a first-floor primary suite. Outside, enjoy a newly installed deck, beautiful stonework, perennial gardens, and a quiet setting. The seller has loved being able to walk to the Saturday farmer's market, paddling on the Cathance River, and exploring all the nearby walking trails. Bowdoinham is beloved for its historic rural Maine character, active farming and arts communities and access to Merrymeeting Bay, all just 15 minutes from Brunswick and 40 minutes from Portland.
