3 bedroom house for sale

Overview

This exquisite Antique Cape built circa 1787 and known as the Jeremy Staples House, was originally located in Limington, Maine. The historic timber frame home was meticulously documented, restored and reassembled in 1998 at its current site. The home features a well-insulated, open-concept design with exposed timbers and a large masonry stove complete with a wood oven. An expansive, antique-timbered farmer's porch offers magnificent views of Wiggin Mountain and overlooks a private 4.5 acre field adorned with perennial flowers and fruit trees including beach plum, apple, pie cherry, blueberry bushes, kousa dogwood, lemon balm, thyme and asparagus, as well as a small pond for frogs and pollinators. The home is set back 600 feet from the road, providing unparalleled privacy with mature trees lining the stone walls and property boundaries. Included on the property is a new 8x12 shed and a charming small retreat cabin, built using antique timbers and architectural elements, situated at the edge of the field and woods. Conveniently located just a short distance from Province Lake Beach, Province Lake Golf Course, and hiking trails on Province Mountain, this unique home offers both historical charm and modern amenities in a serene, private setting.
