Welcome to one of the most scenic areas of Maine – rolling hills, nearby lakes and streams, great hunting and fishing – yet, only a pleasant half-hour drive to Bangor or Ellsworth, or an hour to Acadia National Park. A spacious, open-concept ranch home set well-back from the highway on a hill for complete privacy. Walk a stone's throw through the woods to the west Branch of the Union River for great fishing or boating. A huge south-facing rear deck with a separate screen house provides all-weather enjoyment. Stay warm with wood furnace hot air heat, or oil hot water baseboard heat. Modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances, and a snack bar or formal dining. A huge, dry, 'eat-off-the-floor' basement has a wide daylight access door to the back yard. Nearby snowmobile and ATV trails offer unlimited options for touring.
