If you love big old houses, this is the one for you! Classic old cape farm is sitting on a hillside waiting for your future plans. This home has had a lot of care and work put into it in the last couple of years, but it is still a bit of a blank canvas awaiting its new owners. New roof, all new electrical, many new windows and an updated heating system/hot water heater are your starting points. The property has 24 acres, part in field and part in woods. Excellent opportunity for farming, homesteading etc. Nice woodlot, this property offers something for everyone. The first floor of the home has a large kitchen/dining room, living room, bedroom and a full bath with its old-fashioned claw foot tub and laundry hookups. Upstairs you will find 3 more bedrooms and an unfinished attic space up over the kitchen that would make a fantastic master bathroom/closet!

Old farmhouse in need of just about everything. Beautiful land with high field and over 14acres of a managed wood lot. Build your dream home in the high field and remodel the farmhouse to either resale or use as a rental. Nice location just outside of Dexter and easy commute to Dover Foxcroft.
