Private sanctuary in the Maine woods with serene frontage on Pemaquid Lake and yet only 15 minutes from Damariscotta. This is a place to nurture the soul and get back to the fundamentals of living away from the current grind of our busy world. With a mixture of fields and woods and lakefront there is plenty of opportunity to farm and enjoy all sorts of activities in the outdoors. The original farmhouse was added onto in 2007 with an extremely energy efficient and well appointed living space which now serves as the primary area. The earlier part of the building was also lovingly restored. Complete with a kitchen, this portion of the home can stand alone as an in-law apartment, guest quarters, or income producing short or long-term rental space. Or, with the kitchen removed, it could simply be used as generous family space. A large barn across the street is equipped with horse stalls, tack room, and attached run-in shed. There has been a recognition and a heartfelt need to preserve the environment in this treasured spot. To that end there is a comprehensive conservation easement on the property. The house and barn comprise a 3 acre farmstead area which allows for future building. Additionally, a rustic cabin could be built near the shore. The remainder of the property is to be left intact in a natural state for the benefit of humans, a diverse array of wildlife, dozens of bird species, insects, and plants, including enormous old growth pines and hemlocks.
