Set on 10 acres, this beautifully renovated Cape blends classic Maine character with modern comfort. Offering five bedrooms and two full bathrooms, the home spans approximately 2,300 square feet, with thoughtful updates throughout. The heart of the home is a warm and welcoming living room where the original hardwood floor has been sanded and stained to a rich finish. A propane fireplace adds both charm and comfort, making this a natural gathering space. The kitchen has been fully refreshed with stainless appliances, newly installed cupboards and cabinets, and a deep double basin sink — a practical and stylish workspace for any cook. Adjacent areas now include a bright mudroom and laundry entry, as well as a convenient office, expanding both function and flow. Improvements extend to every corner: premium laminate flooring, fresh interior and exterior paint, new lighting, and a complete roof replacement. A pressure-treated deck at the side entrance and rebuilt front stairs create crisp, inviting entry points. Underneath, a full poured cement foundation and a newly installed forced hot air heating system ensure durability and reliable comfort. Outdoors, the property offers fruit trees — mostly various types of apples — and open yard space suited to gardens, outdoor projects, or simply enjoying the natural surroundings. Recreation is close at hand. Gardner Lake's public boat landing is nearby, and the Sunrise Trail stretches nearly 90 miles for hiking, biking, snowmobiling, and ATV riding. This property strikes a rare balance: updated and move-in ready, generously sized, and perfectly positioned to enjoy the best of Downeast living.
Great opportunity to purchase three properties at once as an investment for the future or to have plenty of space for animals and farming. The property consists of a 1960's cape with five bedrooms on 2.5 acres, a 7 acre house lot partially open and wooded with a gravel ROW, and a large 32.2 acre mostly wooded lot. The home had been lived in until this spring but is in need of work to make it move in ready. The property is being sold 'as is, where is'. The properties location is close to the Gardner's lake Public access, the Downeast Sunrise Trail System, and many great outdoor, recreational opportunities. It is a quick trip to Machias for shopping and other amenities.
