Your Dream Mini-Homestead Awaits in Canaan! Tucked away at the end of a quiet dead-end street sits this beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom conventionally framed home. The heart of the home is a remodeled kitchen (2022) boasting stunning butcher block countertops, elegant wainscoting, a deep farmhouse sink, a new refrigerator, and a ceramic top stove. You will love the fresh, newer flooring throughout the living room and both bedrooms, as well as the peace of mind that comes with a newer metal roof. For the hobbyist or outdoor enthusiast, the massive 25'x20' garage features built-in cabinets and a sturdy workbench with an attached vise. Out back, a powered garden shed offers ample storage, while a heavy-duty metal storage container with a concrete ramp securely houses your ATVs and snowmobiles--or can easily transition into a secure chicken coop! The sunny, open acreage is a homesteader's paradise, complete with mature maple trees ready for tapping, established raised garden beds, perennial flowers, berries, and medicinal herbs. Stay comfortable year-round with a dual-heating system, including a propane direct-vent heater that operates without electricity, plus full generator wiring. Follow the historic stone wall at the rear of the property for direct access to hiking and snowmobile trails leading straight to Lake George. Enjoy hunting, fishing, and outdoor recreation right out your back door! You will appreciate the convenience of being just off U.S. Route 2, with easy access to Pittsfield, Skowhegan, Waterville, and Interstate 95. Shopping, restaurants, healthcare, schools, and everyday amenities are all within a comfortable drive.
