About this home

Maine camp-style living, completely gutted and rebuilt in 2024. This one-level, 1,012 sq ft ranch has a vaulted living room with pine walls and ceilings, new luxury vinyl floors, and a full cedar wraparound porch made for morning coffee. Everything that matters is new: electrical system, plumbing, heat pump heating and cooling, a pellet stove, a heat pump water heater, windows, LED lighting, and a kitchen with butcher-block counters and a gas range. The oversized primary bedroom (21.5 x 11) has its own exterior door and a bath with a walk-in shower. Bedroom 2 is a compact 10 x 9 with no closet, a fit for a guest room or home office. The full unfinished basement has a bulkhead, interior entrance, and sump pump. Washer and dryer included. The home is equipped with a generator hookup. Set on 2.8 acres with gravel parking for 5 to 10 vehicles and room to add a garage. Snowmobile trails nearby, fishing at nearby Etna Pond, and close to the interstate. 15 minutes from Newport and 20 minutes from Bangor. If you want cabin charm, room to spread out, and a home that needs nothing, this one's for you.

PREVIOUS CONTINGENCY REMOVED. Here we have a quaint 1 bed 1 bath home on 2.8 acres of prime commercially zoned land in the heart of Carmel. The business opportunities are endless with 263' of road frontage that has high visibility on US RT 2. Or just keep it as your personal residence. There are two unfinished rooms in the front of the house that could make this a three bedroom house once finished. The tree line on either side of the house provide great privacy. With only a 10 min drive to the interstate and 20 mins to Bangor this property is the perfect location for an easy commute to work or shopping all while avoiding the hustle and bustle of city living.
