Welcome to this beautifully renovated traditional Maine farmhouse, where timeless character meets fresh updates and plenty of room to spread out! Situated on 5 acres of remarkably flat, open land, this property offers endless possibilities for gardening, homesteading, animals, outdoor activities, or simply enjoying the space and peaceful surroundings. Inside, you'll find 5 generously sized bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, beautiful wood floors, and warm wood accents that give the home its inviting farmhouse character. Renovated down to the studs in 2022, the home received new insulation, updated wiring, and fresh paint while preserving the charm that makes an older Maine farmhouse so special. The spacious first-floor bedroom offers the potential to create a large walk-in closet, while four additional bedrooms upstairs provide plenty of flexibility. A small second-floor bonus room could make a cozy reading nook, hobby space, or home office. Two separate staircases provide convenient access to the second floor, and a mudroom offers a practical place to leave coats, boots, and everyday essentials. Additional improvements include a new septic system installed in 2022, a new Monitor heater installed in September 2026, two on-demand water heaters, and two wood stoves for those chilly Maine evenings. Outside, the possibilities continue! A traditional carriage house and barn provide wonderful space for animals, equipment, hobbies, or storage. The welcoming front porch is the perfect place to relax and take in the surroundings, while the beautiful tree in the front yard seems made for a classic tree swing. Whether you've been dreaming of a small homestead, need room for a growing household, or simply love the charm of an old Maine farmhouse with substantial updates already completed, this property offers the space, character, and versatility to make it your own. Come imagine the possibilities!
