1660' of waterfront on the Penobscot River! Need I say more? This unique property is 16.4 +/- acres of land on the shores of the Penobscot River, and an additional .7 acre lot across the road, making the total amount 17.1+/- acres. The sandy loam of the property has made this an ideal spot for farming through the years. The seller used to plant 1100' rows of potatoes in the lower fields near the river, and still has a 32'x62' garden behind the house yearly. The wildlife on the property is abundant. Deer have their fawns every year on the property down by the river. Beaver come over the bank from the river to cut small trees, and ducks and geese are plentiful. The fishing from this spot is absolutely amazing! The property also features a 2550 sq ft. farmhouse that was built in 1898. The seller lives on the first floor, and has the upper level currently blocked off. There is one bedroom on the first floor, one bathroom with a large stand up shower and washer and dryer, a large kitchen with a beautiful antique wood cook stove and a butler's pantry, a formal dining room, and a mud room. There is also a formal entry in the front of the house that features a wide yellow birch staircase. The seller has added insulation in the downstairs walls and replaced the plaster with sheetrock. The second level has 3 more bedrooms and a lot of unfinished space that the seller had planned to finish. There is a layout for two bathrooms, another bedroom or inlaw apartment, and an open area at the top of the stairs that could be used as a sitting area to look out over the river. There is also a staircase on the second floor that leads to the attic. The basement has a pointed granite foundation and poured concrete floor. The HWBB furnace and homemade wood stove are located in the basement along with the new hybrid hot water heater, which also works as a dehumidifier.
