Escape to the beauty of rural Maine with this four-season property situated on approximately 2 acres in Palermo. Built in 2020, this efficiently designed home combines modern construction with the character of exposed log beams and offers convenient one-floor living with an open kitchen and living area, 1 bedroom, and 1 full bath. The property features a blend of open space and wooded surroundings, along with a metal roof, private well and septic system, direct-vent propane fireplace, wood stove, porch, shed, and outbuilding. Currently used as a workshop, the outbuilding provides flexible space for hobbies, projects, storage, or other personal uses. While unfinished inside, a propane line has already been run from the tank to the building, offering potential for future improvements or additional finished space. Whether you're seeking a year-round residence, seasonal getaway, or a property with room to pursue your interests, this property offers a rural Maine setting with convenient access to Waterville, Augusta, and Belfast.
