This well-maintained turn of the last century home was the sawyer's cottage in the historic ''Erskine Mill'' site of North Newcastle (see image). The entire house has been professionally re-finished and includes new appliances, granite countertops, natural pine floors and an ample sun deck. There is a recently installed electric hybrid hot water heater and generator hook-up. A plumbing permit application is in place for a new half-bath. Exterior has newer siding and trim, and has recently been painted. The 28' x 28' craftsman style garage was completed in 2016. It has recent 30 amp underground service and plumbing has been roughed in. With a fully insulated 4' frost wall the garage rarely falls below freezing in the winter and stays cool all summer long. There is a large open back yard with gardens and a play house. The 500 feet of frontage on the river includes several access points as well as the stone foundation remains of the old Erskine Saw Mill. There are mature trees and a park-like feel to the old tow path along the river. The Dyer River connects to the Sheepscot River about a mile downstream and is home to eagles, osprey and blue herons all searching for native alewives, shad and ''tomcod,'' among many other fresh and saltwater fish This is a great canoeing river when the water is high and will take you to the Sheepscot River near the famous reversing falls. Centrally located to all the midcoast has to offer and only ten minutes to Damariscotta, 15 minutes to Wiscasset, 30 minutes to Augusta, one hour to Portland. GSB/ Lincoln Academy (choice) school district.
