Incredible value! The beauty of this home will astound you. Down a carefully maintained private road this nearly 3-acre property radiates peace and tranquility. Getting out of your car after returning from town will be an immediate relief. A large, comfortable porch welcomes you. Fully screened-in, so you enjoy the breeze, not the bugs. Once inside you'll enjoy the rustic feel of the wood interior. Modern amenities, including a first-floor bedroom with a full bath, a pellet stove, and first floor laundry, make living easy. Upstairs you find luxury in two large rooms. The primary bedroom upstairs has an en-suite bathroom, including a whirlpool tub. The other room feels enormous, with its cathedral ceiling and plenty of windows to create a flood of natural light. In the basement, an expanded pantry is perfect for storing the bounty of your harvests. The raised garden beds outside are new and productive. This spring should bring plenty of garlic and more! An additional small building we're calling the ''cabin, '' could become a workshop, playhouse, or whatever you need. If you've been chasing the dream of a beautiful Maine home in the woods, for recreation or for lifestyle, it's time to embrace your goal. Only 16 miles to Ellsworth and 25 miles to Bangor.
