Have you been dreaming of owning a family homestead or mini farm to enjoy the peaceful, quiet life? Look no further! This nearly 8-acre waterfront property has access to both upper and lower Spec Ponds and offers privacy, solitude, and amazing views! The warm, inviting Victorian farmhouse has an amazing wrap around porch that is perfect for sitting and enjoying the silence with magnificent water and mountain views. The ponds offer kayaking, canoeing, fishing and winter fun of ice fishing and skating. There are scenic private views out of most all the windows of the home. If you love to garden, the soils are perfect for vegetable and flower gardening. There is little chance of running out of water as there is as an unlimited supply of pure fresh water from the drilled well and the Spectacle Valley aquifer. If you enjoy running, walking your dog, hiking, or snowmobiling, there is access to ATV trails/clubs. This home has updated electrical, high-speed internet, newer roof, vinyl siding, vinyl replacement windows and whole house blown in insulation as well as closed cell insulation in the basement. On the first floor, you will find a large entryway with 2 rooms branching off that are currently used as a town approved home business with hard wood floors. These can be home to a den, office and dining room and then flow to the kitchen and living room. The kitchen could be expanded, and half bath added for more modern comfort. Second floor has 3 bedrooms, full bath and hard wood floors. The 5 story 40 x 40 barn offers garage space with direct entry to the house. There are 4 other levels for storage, workshop, or animals. This barn would also make an excellent home conversion for multi-general living. Great schools, medical care, grocery stores, restaurants and shops all close by. For year-round activities you are 1 hour to Portland, 2 hours to Boston, 40 mins to North Conway for skiing. A rare opportunity in Maine, midway from the beach or the mountains!
