Welcome to 85 Bowden Point road, where you can enjoy both privacy and tranquillity. The 1750 sqft main house features, 3 beds and 1.5 baths with an attached 2 bay garage. You will appreciate the love that has been put into this home in bringing it to the true beauty that it is today while still holding the charm of an 1800's farmhouse. A complete renovation starting for the owners in 1983 has brought this home to all its glory. Most notable of the updates being; updated electrical and plumbing, vapor seal in basement, metal roof, and solar panel installation, which provides enough energy to cover the electrical bill for almost the entire year. Potential for extra income with the additional 1 bed, 1 bath dwelling that was built in 2003. With the 7+/- acre parcel, you will find many apple trees, lilacs, hydrangeas along with a seasonal view of the Penobscot River. Along with many wildlife visitors, you can find peace (and the occasional brook trout) on the small stream bordering a portion of the Southern Boundary.
