The Coombs Mill Estate is an extraordinary property set on 20.95 acres in North Augusta, with over 100 acres of protected wetlands bordering the rear of the property & providing a remarkable backdrop teeming with wildlife. At the center of the estate is a professionally renovated 4-bedroom, 3 full bathroom brick Colonial home built in 1836, a 3-car garage, & good-sized outbuilding. The residence has undergone extensive updates to its infrastructure, layout, & finishes thoughtfully blending historic character with modern living. This elegant home features heated natural stone & original wide plank flooring, along with modern bathrooms, a hearth room, & second floor laundry. Complimenting the home is the historic Coombs Mill, a well-known local landmark in Maine's capital city that was initially built in 1783. The original up & down saw from the mill is displayed in the lobby of the Maine State Museum. Perched above Bond Brook, the mill has been thoughtfully repurposed as a gathering space & greenhouse featuring a heated concrete floor & full bathroom. Many possibilities for this unique building! Bond Brook continues to flow through the property, supplying water to the mill's bathroom & greenhouse while creating a rare & authentic connection between the structure & surrounding landscape. This property is truly a serene setting of a sanctuary. Established trails wind through acres of ancient forest featuring babbling brooks, waterfalls, massive rock formations, & abundant wildlife. Ideally located in Central Maine, the estate offers convenient access to Maine's lakes, coastline, mountains, & charming small towns. Combining historical significance, natural beauty, & modern livability, Coombs Mill Estate represents a one-of-a-kind offering.
