Back on the market due to buyer's financial obligations. A unique farmhouse property A mere stone's throw away from Branch Pond, this historic late 1800s farmhouse and barn offer a blend of charm, space, and creative potential. The attached barn provides over 2000 sq ft of floor space and an additional 15'x50' area with a workshop and studio space, ideal for artistic endeavors. Almost all of the original interior woodwork has been preserved, including hardwood floors throughout. This home features a classic farm kitchen, separate dining and living rooms, a bedroom (or den), bath/laundry room, and two additional bedrooms upstairs. Set in a great village location with an easy commute to Waterville, Augusta, Rockland, Camden, Rockport and Belfast, the property offers a 12'x24' outbuilding for additional storage. With a solid foundation and most of the undercarriage recently restored, the home has terrific bones and just needs some renovations to bring it back to life. Nearby, Branch Pond, a 366-acre body of water, is perfect for small boats, canoes, kayaks, swimming, and fishing. The pond hosts a variety of birds, including eagles, osprey, heron, and loons, who make their homes here undisturbed. Trout and bass are among the pond's aquatic life. The Atlantic Salmon Federation owns a nearby dam to reestablish the migratory salmon population in the Sheepscot River. With a 10-horsepower motor limit, the pond is ideal for kayaking, canoeing, and serene fishing. The waterfront population is quite low, with long stretches of empty shoreline. Let your creativity flourish within the historic charm of this property. Seller is willing to consider buyer concessions.
