Enjoy modern comfort wrapped in classic New England character in this three-bed, one-and-a-half-bath antique Cape on a quiet road in beautiful Cornish, Maine. Handcrafted around 1794, this iconic homestead showcases the period's craftsmanship with hand-hewn beams, multiple fireplaces, and wide-plank floors--all preserved through generations of careful stewardship and thoughtful updates. Recent improvements include a new on-demand propane generator, spray-foam insulated basement, and efficient heat pumps that supplement the forced hot water system. The wood stove adds practical, fast heat to the living room when you need it. The convenient 24' x 32' heated garage and attached 55' x 59' barn offer exceptional workshop and storage space--room for at least eight vehicles. The property spans over nine picturesque acres bordered largely by stone walls, with perennial gardens, a fenced vegetable plot, and a peaceful pond. You're just ten minutes from Cornish for groceries, gas, pharmacy, healthcare, and restaurants. Greater Portland and Boston are approximately one and two hours away. Showings by appointment only please.
