About This Home
As of August 2021This is about as inexpensive an opportunity to buy 6 acres and a house as there is!
What you'll love: beautiful scenery, the fields surrounding the property, the wind in the property's pine trees! The house is spacious and has many rooms to spread out when you're stuck inside due to COVID or winter. Hughes Net offers good Internet access. First floor bedroom, half bath, bright living room with a cozy woodstove, dining area and a good-sized eat-in kitchen. Also on the 1st floor is the laundry room and a 3-season porch that the sellers have used to start the plants for their once-massive garden plot! The 2nd floor offers the full bath and many bedrooms, including one we would term a ''pass-thru.'' Outside offers open lawn, plenty of private woods, an old chicken coop, and apple trees & perennials!
The challenges: Some of the roof is updated, some needs to be, primarily around the chimney flashing. You'll want to dress up the cosmetics of the house , i.e. siding, flooring and walls. The basement is utility-only, furnace, CBs, etc.
This home does not have the updates required for USDA/VA/FHA financing.
The sellers love the privacy this spot has to offer - they said you could ''garden naked and no one would notice!'' and it's truly minutes from Caribou, Limestone, and Fort Farifield.
So if you'd like to try your hand at country living, on a high, sunny spot in ''The County,'' this is at a price to get you in so that you can begin to create the life you want to live!
