Separate tractor garageHigh-performance windowsProfessional-grade stainless-steel appliancesOverlooks a bucolic landscapeMeandering brookFirst-floor primary bedroomFarmland of statewide importance
On a quiet country road in Somerville, this carefully constructed, certified net-zero home offers an exceptional blend of efficiency, comfort, and Maine retreat living. Set on 12.5 acres of open fields, the property is noted for farmland of statewide importance and overlooks a bucolic landscape bordered by mature trees and a meandering brook. The brook along the eastern boundary is natural Eastern Brook Trout habitat, adding scenic beauty and year-round enjoyment for nature lovers.
With solar production designed to exceed modeled consumption, exceptional air sealing, high-R insulation, high-performance windows, heat pumps, and balanced ventilation, the home was built for year-round comfort, durability, and low operating costs. Its HERS Index of -15 underscores the quality and intent of the build, placing it well beyond standard energy performance.
Inside, the home features a first-floor primary bedroom, professional-grade stainless-steel appliances, an open kitchen with a large island and stainless-steel countertops, high ceilings in the living area, and generous triple-pane windows framing expansive views across the land. Two additional loft areas offer flexible space for guests, work, or storage. An oversized 2+ car garage and separate tractor garage provide room for equipment, projects, and additional use.
The land invites gardening, homesteading, recreation, or simply enjoying the privacy of a rural Maine setting, all just 20 minutes from Augusta and within the Midcoast region. A well-established homestead sugarbush with 80+ tappable maple trees offers the opportunity to produce your own pure Maine maple syrup.
An additional 27 forested acres could also be offered for sale. The abutting land features a rustic cabin overlooking Travelers Brook, managed forest, and deer wintering grounds, creating the potential to expand the property into an even larger private sanctuary.
