Tucked at the end of a long, winding gravel driveway on 11 serene, wooded acres, this 1997-built two-story home offers 2,018 sq ft of comfortable living surrounded by nature. No neighbors, no noise -- just peaceful privacy with deer at dawn, birdsong all day, and towering trees framing every view. Inside, the traditional layout feels bright and welcoming: a sun-drenched living room with a cozy wood stove, an open kitchen and dining area, a bonus family room or library, three bedrooms, and two full baths. Large windows throughout pour in natural light and showcase the surrounding forest -- every season brings its own magic. A Power Perfect whole-home energy management system has been added at the electrical panel for improved power quality, surge protection, and efficiency. Outside living is effortless and expansive. Enjoy the deck off the back, garden beds, fire-pit potential, and miles of trails right on your land. A white barn-style outbuilding provides convenient storage or workshop space, while the attached two-car garage adds everyday practicality. Just three minutes to Parker Pond for kayaking or fishing, and minutes to Scape's Bakery, Flying Pond Variety, blueberry fields, and local attractions in Belgrade, Rome, Farmington, or Augusta. Seasons hit differently here: Winter -- Crackling fires in the wood stove while snow blankets the trees like a postcard. Spring -- Wildflowers bloom and windows stay wide open. Summer -- Deck evenings, stargazing, and easy lake access. Fall -- Vibrant crimson foliage and crisp porch mornings with cider. This isn't just a house -- it's the wholesome, stress-free lifestyle you've been dreaming of. Private, peaceful, and ready for your personal touches. add - Recently updated HVAC ductwork (2026), improving airflow and system efficiency.
