Discover this charming historical home along Dickey Brook in the heart of Frenchville. It was once the home of Emile Sirois, one of the first blacksmiths in the area. It sits right at the corner of Church Avenue and Main Street, and is perched on the hill over the brook and the basement driveway. The main features are three bedrooms and one full bathroom, all on one floor along with the washer and dryer, kitchen, and all other living spaces. This property is unique in that you can drive right up to the front door, or drive down around into the basement garage - it is very accessible. The living room is quite spacious and connects to a three season covered and enclosed porch. There are two extra rooms on the East side of the home that are also three season and are great for enclosed, easy-to-access storage. From the front storage room, the basement can be accessed via stairs. The basement has high ceilings and is the full length of the building. You will not run out of storage with this house! A wood stove can help save money on oil, and wood delivery here is as easy as it gets with a garage door. Back outside the home, you'll find yourself enjoying the grounds and the tranquil flat along the brook down below. There are paths, a stairway, and a bench to sit down below and enjoy the serenity of Dickie Brook. It truly feels relaxing to sit down, away from the neighbors and traffic, and enjoy the peacefulness. Frenchville has low taxes, low administrative burden, and lots of recreational opportunities. A new gas station and convenience store will be opening just down the road later this summer. Many nearby job opportunities as well: Northern Maine Medical Center and University of Fort Kent are 15 mins West, and Twin Rivers Paper is 15 mins East. Call today to make this great home yours in friendly Frenchville!
