816 Tripptown Rd, Hiram, ME 04041

Homesteaders, hikers, farmers, horse-owners, hunters, take note! A beautiful slice of Maine awaits at this 88-acre, stone-wall bounded property on the southwest slope of Gould Mountain. Remnants of the orchards that used to exist are still evident on the property, along with the beautiful views attainable with a little hiking. The home, built in 1815, has retained much of its old-time charm but has enjoyed many recent upgrades including added insulation, contemporary wiring, energy efficient windows, new furnace with extra fuel storage, new metal roof, relatively new septic system, steel-lined chimneys throughout, and on-demand propane generator. No dark, stuffy cape bedrooms here! When the seller had the new roof installed, she also installed six Velux skylights in the bedrooms and other key areas. Two bedrooms upstairs and one downstairs; the seller is currently using the downstairs bedroom as office/living space. Bright, utility-minded kitchen for the industrious cook features high end appliances and separate sinks for separate projects. New, 24' by 24' insulated and heated garage with paved driveway and another recently built 10' by 20' outbuilding offers plenty of storage space. Second outbuilding could be reworked as a barn for small livestock. Buyers with pets will love the fully fenced yard, roughly 1.5 acres ready for your furry friends to play safely. With all the updates already in place, there is still room for your imagination and ingenuity in some unfinished projects including a second-floor bath project. With no neighbors in sight of the home, but only minutes to Cornish shopping and restaurants, it's the best of both worlds!
