Step back in time without sacrificing modern comfort at this beautifully restored 1797 farmhouse, set on a level, meticulously landscaped lot with an impressive 155 feet of deepwater frontage on the Saco River. Enjoy breathtaking wide river views and endless opportunities for boating, kayaking, swimming, and fishing right from your own deeded waterfront.
The expansive lawn offers exceptional space for entertaining, cookouts, lawn games, gardens, or even a small hobby farm--just as the current owners have enjoyed. A charming two-story attached barn provides abundant storage, workshop space, or endless possibilities for future use.
Nearly all of the heavy lifting has already been completed with an extensive renovation beginning in 2023. Improvements include 45 new windows, completely updated electrical wiring and panels, new plumbing, new flooring, ceilings and walls, a new mudroom, rebuilt sunroom and riverside deck, a new high-efficiency HVAC system, three beautifully renovated bathrooms, a stunning new kitchen, a separate prep kitchen ideal for baking, or meal preparation, and all new LED lighting and fixtures throughout.
The spacious home offers five bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, blending the timeless character of a late 18th-century farmhouse with today's modern conveniences. The rebuilt sunroom and deck provide the perfect setting to relax while taking in the peaceful sights and sounds of the flowing Saco River.
Adding to the property's appeal is a waterfront camp located directly at the river's edge. Included in the sale, this unique structure offers incredible potential to become a guest retreat, seasonal bunkhouse, artist's studio, or the ultimate riverside gathering place with some additional renovation.
Rarely does a property combine historic charm, extensive modern updates, exceptional waterfront, and room to live, play, and grow. This is a truly special offering and a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own a remarkable piece of
