Quintessential c. 1840 Cape farmhouse on 4. 87 acres less than a mile from downtown Damariscotta. The main house features wide pine floors throughout and three working fireplaces. Prepare your meals in a traditional farmhouse kitchen with a large pantry and newer Bertazzoni 5 burner gas range and serve in the dining room by the fireplace. Spend your evenings by the fireplaces in the den or the family room which is a large space for gatherings that can carry out onto the deck that takes in the pastoral setting w/seasonal views of the Damariscotta River. The first floor has nice high ceilings and a circular flow giving it a contemporary feel for a historic home. Continuing through the hall to stairs note the original wood railing that takes you up to the bedrooms. The primary bedroom was completely redone in 2020 and has its own study preceding it. The room has a large window with picturesque views. Three of the bedrooms have useful built in shelves or drawers for storage/display and a large closet at the top of the stairs allows for nice storage for a historic home.

The large red barn; a beautiful example of the post and beam building techniques, has 3 levels, a lower- level garage and a 1-car garage door off the circular drive. 1/3 of the barn is finished w/a currently rented townhouse; full bath downstairs as a disability accommodation w/washer-dryer. An open concept allows an option for use as a studio apartment w/large sliding doors leading to a private balcony. Upstairs you enter an open space w/two closets, ½ bath and ample space for storage, a second room with hardwood floors and windows overlooking the property below. There is a ladder to a loft at the very top of the barn, above the townhouse to add a level to the pre-existing space. The unfinished areas allow for many creative endeavors for a personal workshop or with town approval commercial space or more apartments.
Septic design is for 3BR + 1BR apt
