This classic Maine farmhouse, known to locals as "The Judge's House", once stood sentry over 160 acres and was one of the largest farms in Damariscotta. This warm, inviting, immaculate home was the residence of Judge Arthur Nissen. The current owners purchased it in 2005. Surrounded by fruit trees, berry bushes, perennials and wildflowers, this 4 br. cape sits on 2 manicured acres with 4 add'l. acres of field for horses, goats or gardens. The 3 story post and beam barn houses a workshop, 2 stalls, a hayloft and plenty of room for storage. Sellers installed a wind turbine that assists with electric bills. Enjoy solitude among the foliage and wildlife while relaxing in the simple yet elegant studio on the outskirts of the gardens. Keep company with the meadowlarks, geese, bluebirds, hummingbirds and Fred, the resident Hare! Located just 10 minutes from downtown Damariscotta where you will find waterfront shops, restaurants, local theater and library.
