Full of original period features, the sunny house features an open-concept living and dining room, den and large kitchen on the first floor, and 4 bedrooms and two baths on the second floor. The property is bordered by a gorgeous stone wall along the road and north boundaries, and mature plantings accent the considerable lawn, which is often home to deer, fox, a great variety of songbirds and other wildlife. The expansive and sturdy barn has been partially renovated, and would be ideal for many possible uses such as office space, art studios, or boat/vehicle storage. The house offers many storage options itself, and is graced with beautiful pine flooring throughout. With a new furnace, two Jotul wood stoves, fresh paint in and out, this inviting property has much to offer. Minutes to Acadia National Park!
