Built in 1828 for Capt. John Berry, as his home port, Berry Hill Farm sits majestically on an elevated site with 10 acres of fenced pasture land. Completely and meticulously restored between 1999 and 2002, there are four bedroom suites with full baths, primary suite on the first floor with 3 on the second floor. Gorgeous custom kitchen with a bay breakfast nook overlooking the pasture. Along with period interior restoration the systems were paid close attention to including new wiring throughout, heat system and septic and leach field to accommodate 6 bedrooms. The large barn has a front and back entrance to the fields, a hayloft with newly reinforced joists and flooring and lots of storage space. There is a conservation view easement on the pasture area to be left as open fields. The property abuts 20 acres of conservation land with beautiful walking paths to a cove. This is a classic Maine farm steeped in history.
