Nestled in the heart of Maine's countryside, this charming 3.4-acre property has the kind of setting that's becoming increasingly difficult to find. Surrounded by open farmland on three sides, you'll enjoy exceptional privacy, peaceful views in every direction, stunning sunsets, and the simple beauty of rural living--all while remaining affordable and just a short drive to Waterville/Augusta and everyday conveniences. This spacious 4-bedroom ranch provides nearly 1,600 square feet of comfortable single-level living, delivering flexibility for growing families, guests, or a home office. Sunlight fills the home throughout the day, while large windows frame picturesque views of fields, mature trees, and the surrounding countryside. Step outside and discover what truly makes this property special. Stroll through your own mature apple trees, smell the lovely lilacs, enjoy evenings under wide-open skies on your front porch, or simply relax and take in the quiet surroundings where neighboring farmland creates a timeless Maine landscape that changes beautifully with each season. Adding even more character is the property's unique historic fieldstone outbuilding--a rare feature full of New England charm. Whether used for storage, a small workshop, gardening, or simply admired as a piece of local history, it creates a memorable focal point that sets this property apart from anything else on the market. Major improvements were made in 2022 including a new heating system, new windows, and a new well and septic system. Providing peace of mind for years to come and allowing you to focus on making the property your own. Whether you're searching for a country retreat, a place to start a hobby farm, or simply a home where you can enjoy peace, privacy, and room to breathe, 273 Benton Road gives an opportunity that's becoming harder to find. Here, the pace slows down, the views are stunning, and every season brings something new to appreciate.
