Quintessential rustic Maine - a true log home beautifully sited far from the road on 3.6 acres facing west across the Damariscotta River. There's 305' of shore frontage - some beachy, some rocky, & everything in between. A fieldstone fireplace is the centerpiece of the spacious living room, & the kitchen/dining room has an antique cookstove & a cathedral ceiling. There are 3 bedrooms, a den, 2 baths, a full basement with workshop, 2 car garage with a second story & a huge new waterside deck with access from the downstairs master bedroom & the living room. New flooring throughout & new quartz countertops. Savor sunsets & moon rises over the river from this warm, well maintained home. Enjoy the rich, varied resources of the twin villages of Damariscotta & Newcastle only minutes away but with the huge benefit of low Bristol property tax as the property lies just over the Bristol town line. Seals swim and eagles soar with herons and osprey on this remarkable, private, waterfront site.
