Back-Up offers are welcome! Welcome to a one-of-a-kind home, blending rustic charm with unparalleled privacy. Originally built in 1988 with an addition in 2009, this property boasts 3,300 sq. ft. and is nestled on a sprawling 2.9-acre lot. As you approach, you'll be greeted by a picturesque brook, offering both adventure and tranquility. A heavy-duty vehicle bridge spans the brook, adding a unique and whimsical touch. Surrounded by mature trees, this home offers an exceptional level of privacy and a serene setting. The property features a workshop and shed, perfect for hobbies, work, or additional storage. Converted to be handicap accessible in 2021, the spacious two-story layout includes a large living room with a half bathroom that was originally designed to be a full bath but remains unfinished. The kitchen boasts granite countertops, vaulted ceilings, and an expansive pantry. The first-floor addition includes a full bathroom, a bonus room that could serve as a second kitchen, and two bedrooms, ideal for an in-law apartment. Upstairs, you'll find two well-sized bedrooms, a long hallway, a laundry room, and a master suite with a unique bathroom, a closet room that can serve as an office, and an unfinished sunroom overlooking the brook and driveway. The basement is sitting partly on ledge, has concrete walls and slab, and is somewhat wet due to the ledge. The enchanting outdoor space features a frog pond, giant grapes, blackberry bushes, magnolias, a weeping cherry tree, a burning bush, forsythia, and more. Loved since 2005, this home is being offered at a reduced price to reflect its as-is condition. While in good living condition, it awaits some finishing work and cosmetic updates to make it truly shine according to the new owners' preferences. Located just 10 minutes from I-395, 15 minutes from Brewer, and 20 minutes from Bangor, this property provides a wonderful escape while remaining conveniently close to town.
