Farmhouse with acreage, large barn, carriage house with an apartment and rental income in both the house and apartment. Imagine this picturesque setting that could be a great place for horses, dogs, livestock or agricultural endeavors. Built in 1825 makes this property one for the history books during the times when John Quincy Adams was the 6th president, the completion of the Erie Canal, the Battle of the Alamo, and the first years of Maine becoming a state.
