Overview

Description

This classic farmhouse is sited on an exceptional 8 acre parcel with approximately 400' of tidal waterfront on Back River. This sizeable parcel is rare and lends itself to a private estate or future division. The farmhouse is solid and has classic lines and although it was cared for, it awaits updates. 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, an attached barn and a 2 car garage are intriguing to any old house enthusiast. The land allows for a gentle walk to the shore through a beautiful forest of mostly hardwoods and rolling terrain. This unique parcel has ample opportunities and is truly a quintessential Maine property.
