With elevated views over this beautiful farmland, you can live the agrarian lifestyle of your dreams. The farmhouse, barn, sugar shack and other outbuildings are set back down a long driveway offering great privacy. The north boundary borders the Cobbosseecontee Stream marshland which provides a buffer and increased privacy. The 4 BR main house was built in 1981 and it's post and beam construction offers great renovation possibilities. Numerous outbuildings including a barn, multiple sheds, sugar shack and even a well-built tree house/stand overlooking the back fields and marsh. The perfect self sustenance lifestyle property offering farming, equine, livestock sugaring and sporting possibilities. Rich soils currently provide high yield hay production for your livestock, horses or to sell. Explore development opportunities as the land could be split into three equal parcels. So many outdoor activities to do right on your own property: snowshoeing and cross country skiing in the winter to sugaring, farming, gardening, hiking plus fishing and hunting. Conveniently located to Augusta, Lewiston, Freeport and only 45 minutes to Portland. Rare and private!
