What's special

Classic farmhouse propertyLarge farm pond

Opportunity awaits at 970 River Road in Dresden. Set on just over 6 acres, this classic farmhouse property offers a unique combination of land, outbuildings, and potential for someone ready to take on a project. The property features a farmhouse, barn, and a large farm pond, with plenty of room for gardening, animals, recreation, or simply enjoying the open space. The home is currently occupied but is in need of updating and repairs, offering the next owner the opportunity to renovate and improve the property over time. The barn also requires work but provides additional possibilities for storage, workshop space, agricultural use or future restoration. Located along River Road in rural Dresden, the property offers a peaceful setting while remaining within convenient reach of Wiscasset, Augusta, Bath, and surrounding Midcoast communities.
