Tucked away on seven wooded acres, this thoughtfully designed one bedroom home offers privacy, simplicity, and exceptional care- completely turn-key and impeccably maintained. Built in 1992, it delivers the ease of single floor living with windows that look directly into the surrounding woods, creating a peaceful, immersed-in-nature feel. Step onto the covered porch to enjoy the sounds of birds, an afternoon tea, and quiet moments that invite you to slow down and breathe. A one car garage with electricity and generous storage provides space for projects and hobbies, while an additional outbuilding with power offers even more flexibility for tinkering, studio space, or storage. An attached woodshed at the back door makes heating with wood practical and tidy- no trekking through the house in winter boots! Located in Monroe, residents enjoy access to Monroe Falls and a charming public park, along with a strong sense of small-town community. The property is set within Waldo County, known for its vibrant arts scene, local farms, and farm to table culture. It is one of Maine's most creative and sought after regions. Conveniently located just 30 minutes to Bangor or 20 minutes to Belfast, this home offers the perfect balance of seclusion, character, and accessibility.
