Situated on 1.25 acres, this charming farmhouse is ready for you to make it your own. Bring your creativity and measuring tape because this one has endless possibilities. Many large projects have been completed, such as vinyl siding, new roof, and a newer heating system. It awaits some cosmetic updates and a facelift. This gem of a home boats 4 bedrooms on the second floor with 1 bedroom, laundry room and bath on the first. The lot offers a 2 car newer detached garage with loft room, a yard for gardening, chickens, and a great space to play. The screened-in front porch is a family favorite for over 57 years and ideal for enjoying rainy days or summer evenings bug-free. Bring life back to this wonderful family home that you have always dreamed of while being 1 minute to Route 202 with a 20 minute commute to Lewiston/Auburn or Augusta.
