Description

This secluded and peaceful antique New England cape style home sits on the banks of the Eastern Channel of the Penobscot River, overlooking fields to the waters edge. With westerly views of the river you will experience the serenity of the beautiful sunsets. This historic 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath has been in the same family for over 50 years and used as a summer cottage. This estate offers a pastoral setting with apple trees, lilac bushes, gradual slopping terrain & wild life. The 7.5 acres slopes gently to the shores of the Penobscot River with 716ft of tidal access to kayaking, fishing and bird watching. The living space inside the house is large and open with high barn beam ceilings and wide floor planks. The bedrooms are large and the Primary bedroom has a view of the water and fields. Each room is lovingly adorned with antique furnishings and decorations which will stay with the property. The home is in need of some repairs and with some loving touches it will be a magnificent retreat or a permanent home. The house can not be seen from the road, so drive byes are not possible.
