Guarded by a row of mighty hardwoods, this unique contemporary farmhouse exudes a level of character & charm rarely found. Situated on 5.83 secluded acres, highlights include the 1,538 sq. ft. home, a 1,000 sq. ft. barn, the charismatic ''Stone House,'' a small forest pond, a 7,000 sq. ft. garden, and acres of forest, established plantings & delight at every turn. The home consists of 2 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, a kitchen with a large social area, a dining room, a living room, a laundry/mudroom, and an attached two-car garage. The kitchen's social area is undeniably appealing with it's 11 window array soaking in natural light & views to the idyllic backyard. You'll also find an antique cook stove, beamed cathedral ceilings and a heat pump here. It's a favorite room for all the right reasons. The dining room boasts oak floors, a half bath and a lovely bay window. Oak flooring continues into the living room, which features a handsome fireplace, built-in bookcases, and a heat pump. The 2nd floor offers a full bathroom and 2 bedrooms, both with custom built closets & storage to maximize the home's modest size. The basement is dry, offering excellent storage opportunity. For outbuildings, the barn will host any project or garden specialist well, yet also offers a tempting option for conversion into enclosed living space. The barn's adorable ''secret room'' sets the stage for what could be. At the ''Stone House'', English countryside meets coastal Maine in the most delightful way. Sturdily built of poured concrete and with an attached greenhouse, the Stone House will be yet another adventure for the new owner to guide. The garden area is a 7,000+ sq. ft. dream of fence posted, full sun planting area surrounded by mature forest. Plus water & electric on site. Located on the quiet side of Trenton, downtown Ellsworth is a 10 minute drive, while MDI & Acadia is a quick 5 minutes in the other direction.
