About this home

Escape Into The most Serene Part of Northern Maine that is still easily accessible and a short drive to the Stores, Schools, Hospital, and Canadian Border. Look over your own 26 Acre pond, from the fully screened in deck directly off the kitchen and dining area. Harvest your own trees for heating, tap the maple trees, explore many trails on over 200 acres of forest, harvest blueberries, apples, raspberries, blackberries and there is more than enough room in the already made gardens to grow more goodies. Attached 3 Car garage offers direct access to living space and ample storage above. Layout of the home offers open living dining and kitchen with first floor en-suite, and office. 4 Spacious Bedrooms on second floor and full bath with laundry shoot to send everyone's laundry right to the first floor laundry room. Finished Basement includes 3rd Full Bathroom, Spacious Family Room, Walk-in Closets, Utility room and 6th Bedroom! This home and property is a must see, pictures do not do this justice
