This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home has been lovingly cared for & offers the kind of property many people spend years searching for. The current owner has never used pesticides during their ownership since 1997, making it especially appealing for gardening, raising animals, & living a more self-sufficient lifestyle. The land already offers an incredible start w/ established raspberries, blueberries, two pear trees, one peach tree, two productive apple trees, a large garden area, & possibly blackberries. A farm pond adds to the charm & usefulness of the property, & there is also a dug well available for gardening. Move right in and enjoy the the property's abundance, or keep adding to your own homesteading dream. The barn previously housed 8 cows & offers lots of possibilities with workshop space, hayloft storage over the garage & barn, & even a bar area that could become entertaining space, hobby space, or whatever fits your vision. There is also a separate shed perfect for garden tools, storage, an art studio, or additional workspace. Inside, the home offers a comfortable & welcome feel w/ a sunny second living room overlooking the fenced in 16x32 in ground pool, insulated entryway, & a porch for additional relaxation. Additional features include a metal roof, paved driveway, one car attached garage, generator hookup, & a dry basement w/ gravel floor, stone foundation, & sump pump. Set in a peaceful rural location, yet still convenient to town, this property is approx. 6 miles from Dexter & 7 miles from Dover-Foxcroft.

Whether you are ready to start homesteading right away or simply want space to spread out & create the lifestyle you have been dreaming about, this property offers so much potential to grow into for years to come.
