Step out onto your back porch as the sun sets out over the mountains; walk down onto your back field, light a fire to keep yourself and company warm on those cool summers nights. Centrally located just 20-30 minutes outside of Bangor or Ellsworth and just 15 minutes into Bucksport. This home allows you to have the country setting but the convivence of being close to town. Less than an hour from Acadia National park. This newly renovated home has been completely updated and redone from the floors up. The whole main floor of the home allows for great natural light, gorgeous granite countertops, updated appliances and large bedrooms. Downstairs has just been partially finished with fresh paint and new flooring through most of the space. Just off from the main living area downstairs is the laundry and utility rooms. Great trails connect to the property and allow access to the ATS trails. Just minutes from popular great mountain hiking trails, many boat launches. Everyday could be a great Maine experience.
