About This Home

As of October 2022

Welcome to a little piece of heaven set on 30+ beautiful, serene acres in Midcoast Maine, including over 550' of frontage on the Eastern River! Once home to a small native plant nursery and herb farm, this property has so much to offer, including vegetable beds and perennial gardens featuring many flowering species endemic to the coastal Maine region. A high-performance greenhouse was constructed in 2022, bringing even more possibilities to this spectacular property. Built on a full 4' frost wall foundation, this steel greenhouse features a Ground-to-Air Heat Transfer (GAHT) system to aid in maintaining moderate temperatures throughout the year. The 18'X24' footprint provides ample growing space for your favorite crops. Both hobbyists and professional botanists will be amazed by the endless possibilities.
Finally making your way to the residence you will find a home that has been well-loved and cared for. This 2 bed 1.5 bath is both efficient and functional with many modern updates including: heat pumps, newly upgraded 200 amp electrical service, new (heat pump) hot-water heater, supplementary cellulose insulation in the attic, new wood-stove and stovepipe, and so much more. The entire parcel has been recently surveyed to confirm acreage and boundaries. Additionally, a 1 acre parcel has been surveyed separately to allow for a potential property division. This is a property you absolutely must come see to appreciate all it has to offer. A natural, peaceful setting only a short commute from downtown Dresden and Bath. 15 minutes to downtown Wiscasset. Approximately 30 minutes to Brunswick and 1 hour to Portland. Conveniently located near Route 1, I-295, and I-95.
