Amongst the beech forests of north Ellsworth, this offering provides a lovely home, separate studio/garage building, 3 stall horse barn, paddock & an array of natural elements uncommon to find in one location. Sited on 5.2 acres, the grounds are encircled by mature hardwoods, delivering spectacular Fall color, excellent privacy & abundant wild habitat. The well loved home has received several recent upgrades, including roofing, siding & decks. 1st floor living is entirely possible with a full bath, bedroom & open concept living/dining/kitchen. The kitchen's riverbed granite counters & Indonesian carving pantry door are particularly striking. Access from the dining area to the broad wrap-around deck invites you to spend time there, enjoying the 1st floor deck's views & divine setting. The 2nd floor consists of what could be considered a private suite, with a new half bath, dressing room & bedroom with balcony deck overlooking Flying Moose Mtn. The lower level, only needing flooring to be finished, provides two additional rooms, both with walk-out sliding glass doors, plus a generous utility, laundry & storage area. The custom built barn will be any horse, farm animal or workshop lover's delight with its 3 stalls, wide 12' aisle, tack room, hayloft & covered front patio. Fenced turn-out & paddock access, as well as power & water are available in the barn. Primitive fencing surrounds most of the cleared land, providing a unique opportunity for the owner's horses to free range roam the property. The studio/garage building provides a 288 s.f. studio space with incredible view windows, an oversized 1 vehicle garage & a small workshop. Like the home & barn, the studio/garage building boasts new roof shingles. Stream, waterfall, small spring fed pond, mtn. views, birds & wildlife, outdoor shower & tub, 1 mile from Great Pond Mtn. Wildlands trails and just a few miles from stunning Branch Lake State Park...a treasure of a home for those who seek space, solace & rural bliss.
