About this home
Own the Maine Dream, With Room to Build Equity! Looking for a property where you can create something truly your own? 277 Blanchard Road offers the character, land and potential you've been looking for at a price that leaves room to add value. Set on 3 acres in Sanford, this 4 bedroom log home delivers the kind of Maine character that's difficult to recreate. The living room features a beautiful stone fireplace with insert, while the dining room showcases exposed beams and cathedral ceilings. Step outside onto the welcoming farmer's porch and enjoy the peaceful setting and generous amount of usable land. This home does need some work and updating, providing an excellent opportunity for someone who is willing to roll up their sleeves and make it their own. The kitchen countertops have been removed, giving the next owner a chance to bring their own vision and finishes to the space rather than paying a premium for someone else's renovation. And the potential doesn't stop inside. The property offers a large, level open area with a lean-to and stage, creating an incredibly versatile space for entertaining, gatherings, hobbies, gardening or exploring possibilities for additional improvements, subject to town requirements. A detached garage and shed provide valuable storage and workspace for projects, equipment and all the things that come with enjoying three acres. Imagine summer evenings around a fire, gatherings with friends on your own private grounds, morning coffee on the farmer's porch, or spending weekends transforming this property into the Maine retreat you've always envisioned. Priced below market value to reflect its current condition, this is an opportunity to purchase a property with character and significant potential for equity through improvements.
