About this home
Step back in time with this charming 3-4 bedroom farmhouse in the heart of the Lower Village of New Gloucester. Built in 1770, this 2,780± square foot home offers a rare blend of historic character and thoughtful modern updates.
Inside, you'll find period details throughout, including original wide pine floors--rumored to have been milled at the historic Chandler Mill. The home originally featured four fireplaces, with two currently operational and a third hosting a wood stove. The updated kitchen combines granite and butcher block countertops, offering both functionality and warmth.
The flexible layout allows for up to four bedrooms depending on your needs. The primary bedroom features a working fireplace and direct access to the bathroom, creating a comfortable and inviting retreat. Numerous recent updates enhance the home while preserving its historic appeal.
Set on 7.02± acres, this property has enough acreage and road frontage that it's a double lot. The property offers a true Maine country lifestyle. A large barn provides excellent storage for vehicles, equipment, or recreational gear. The land features established gardens with asparagus, rhubarb, blueberry bushes, grapevines, and a variety of flowering plants, along with chicken coops for those looking to homestead.
Enjoy the peaceful setting from the covered porch, explore trails throughout the property, or gather around the outdoor fire pit. The historic Interurban rail bed runs through the land, adding a unique and interesting feature. The property also includes both a drilled well for the home and a dug well servicing the outbuildings.
A rare opportunity to own a piece of Maine history with space, functionality, and timeless charm....
