This graceful 1900s cozy farmhouse showcases historical features of an early period that will impress anyone who loves the character of ornate wood, curved walls, arches, and so much more. It has been carefully and lovingly cared for as it's been in the same family for over 60 years. The spacious eat-in kitchen offers a breakfast nook. The formal dining room and living room will transport you to the days gone by and immerse you with the warmth and charm of high ceilings, wide wood molding, wood floors, curved walls, and arches over bay windows. The large den with glass sliders to the lawned backyard offers a brick hearth and glass-faced woodstove to cozy up to with a book on those fall or winter days. A plumbed area on the second floor is ready for an additional bathroom if so desired. The ornate wood trim and front porch accent the front exterior while expressing the grandeur of the architecture. An in-law apartment, oversized shop/garage, walk-up attic, and raised gardens make this an excellent home for living, vacationing, or B & B: nearly 1.5 acres and almost 250' of river frontage. The meandering Penobscot River is deeply rooted in Maine history and offers fishing, boating, and wildlife. There is even a family of eagles nearby. Just a half hour to the city of Bangor or an hour to Baxter State Park and many nearby lakes with public beaches and boat launches make outdoor recreation opportunities abundant. You will love this home and town if you want to experience a slower pace, less hustle and bustle, and have a home that transcends you back in time.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
