Circa-1879 New England farmhouse set on 19+/- acres with approximately 350' of frontage on the Kennebec River and Carrabassett Stream along the rear boundary. Expanded over time, the home offers 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, combining period character with practical living space. The home includes multiple heating sources--oil, wood stove, gas, and electric--providing flexibility for Maine's seasons. An attached barn offers ample space for storage, workshop use, equipment, or hobby pursuits. The property features a balanced mix of open and wooded land with established garden areas known for productive, low-rock soil. Additional features include pasture space, two apple trees, grape vines, wild blueberries, and a wooded area consisting primarily of oak, maple, and poplar. The homesite is elevated above the river, offering a sense of separation while maintaining easy access to the waterfront for recreational use. Private well, septic system, and year-round road access support both full-time living and seasonal use. Conveniently located approximately 20 minutes from Waterville for shopping, services, and healthcare.
