About this home
Steeped in history and surrounded by the timeless beauty of rural Maine, this remarkable 1790 Cape is gracefully situated on 37.9 pastoral acres with approximately 500 feet of frontage along Trout Brook. Offering 1,820 square feet of living space, three bedrooms, and two full baths, the home retains an extraordinary collection of original historic features, lending warmth, character, and authenticity throughout. Inside, period details tell the story of more than two centuries of New England craftsmanship. Two fireplaces add to the home's enduring charm, including one in the front parlor and another in a second-floor bedroom. Thoughtful renovations have preserved the home's historic integrity while introducing important modern improvements. In 2006, the property underwent extensive updates, including new wiring, plumbing, and heating. Renovations were completed by acclaimed craftsman Les Fossel, known for his expertise in the restoration and preservation of historic Maine homes. An attached two-car garage provides additional convenience and storage above. The setting is every bit as special as the home itself. Thirty-seven acres of fields, woods, and waterfront along Trout Brook, create a wonderfully pastoral landscape with exceptional privacy and room to enjoy the outdoors. Trout Brook winds along approximately 500 feet of the property, adding another layer of natural beauty to this distinctive country setting. Perhaps one of the property's most memorable features is the historic Wiscasset, Waterville & Farmington Railway, a two-foot narrow gauge railroad that crosses the land. The distant whistle of a passing steam train evokes another era and feels perfectly at home alongside this centuries-old Cape. Located in the beautiful Midcoast town of Alna, this is a rare opportunity to become the next steward of a historic Maine property where original character, substantial acreage, waterfront, and living history come together in a truly unforgettable setting....
