Now, it is your chance to continue the tradition of American Excellence. Modern conveniences were added to this traditional Maine farmhouse but the charm is still present in every room. This farm is an all inclusive resort. There is plenty of sleeping space and even living space for extra guests and/or hired help. You will enjoy the updated kitchen with custom cabinetry, Dektin countertops and commercial grade appliances. Yet, the working, enormous, brick fireplace will make you feel like you are back in early America. The stone patio and hot tub in the back yard will give you the oasis you need after a busy day of work. In the winter, you can enjoy the view from the glassed in porch. The barn provides a home gym with bathroom and living space above. the grounds include over 43 acres with walking or cross country skiing trails in the woods that run along the river and into the fields. The hay fields produce over 40,000 dollars in hay bales each year. There are high bush blueberry bushes, grape vines, peaches, plums, raspberries, mulberries and elderberries. What will you do with this amazing opportunity? Maybe turn it into a wedding venue? Or will this be your homestead?
