This late 1800's cape farmhouse is set on approximately 30 acres of fields and woods, with a man made pond and loaded with gorgeous trails. The house and attached garage are surrounded by mature hardwood trees, evergreen shrubs, fruit trees and perennial plants. If you have been looking for a 'Maine farmhouse' with much of the original character kept, this might be it! Newer drilled well and septic system, new first floor full bath, new roofing, newly repointed and sealed basement walls, new electric panel, new water heater and so much more! Great space for everyone in the family including work from home space if needed! Nice field or pasture area for outdoor recreation or for pets to run and play, or livestock to graze in, with South and East exposure for the gardener in the family. Direct access to maintained ATV and snowmobile trails.
