The classic residence is sited at the top of Poole's Hill and has been expanded and renovated overtime. The farmhouse has central heat and includes a large eat-in kitchen, dining room, living room with fireplace, sunroom, guest bedroom and full bath on the first floor, with an ensuite master, guest bedroom, and full bath upstairs. The attached barn includes a lovely library/den and study on the first floor with 2 bedrooms and a bath up. Above the barn/garage is an unfinished room that, with dormers, could be transformed into another room with elevated ocean views. Connecting the two living areas is a generously-sized pantry and laundry area with painted floors, built in cabinetry and slate sink. Existing easements shared with neighboring properties protect the natural beauty, habitat, and classic qualities of this very special area. This is the only available property with 14 acres of open meadow, a shared deepwater dock, and an iconic Maine home oozing of charm inside and out!
