Perfectly situated within the greater Bangor Area, this 1900s farmhouse sits on 4.9 acres with its scattering of apple trees and sizable fishing pond was once the stagecoach stop between Newport and Bangor. A short distance to the airport, this property has it all, great location with a massive barn, a single car garage, access to all of Maine's ITS snowmobile trails through the local club, and a short walk down from the town boat launch. The farmhouse has been well maintained and renovated over the years including a full renovation in the 80s and improvements include plaster with drywall, copper plumbing with PVC and knob and tube with current electrical connections. A majority of the house has the original wooden flooring with only the bathrooms being tiled (2016). As you walk into the house from the side door (as a Maine tradition) you'll enter a beautiful kitchen with modern appliances, a double sink with new fixture, pantry, countertop cutting board, with wood countertops. This is connected to the dining room with views of the pond and front yard apple tree. From there, you'll go past the stairs through the foyer and into the large living which has a well-maintained cast-iron wood stove with glass door. Off the living room is the downstairs bedroom which is currently used as an office space. Off the living room is the downstairs bathroom with a walk-in shower and indoor access to the basement. The Primary bedroom with its cathedral ceiling and walk in closet is located on the second floor and was originally two rooms that were combined to form this beautiful space. Also on the second floor is a second bedroom which overlooks the pond, and a newly remodeled bathroom with twin shower heads within its walk-in shower.
