Character and possibilities abound for this antique farmhouse with 15 acres on the outskirts of Dexter, the charming lake town known as the ''Heart of Maine.'' This 3-bedroom, 1.5 bath home has a large, cheery kitchen, mudroom/ell, front office, and a family room that spans the back end of the first floor. Upstairs, three bedrooms (two with generous closets) and a roomy full bath with tub/shower and laundry. Home has 200 amp service with a generator hookup. A new oil furnace was installed in 2021. Lots of storage, vehicle and otherwise, available in the large attached shed and two-story barn. Outside, enjoy an expansive grassy yard with established old-fashioned perennials. This beautiful rural location is just a 7 minute drive from downtown Dexter, annual host of the Maine Red Hotdog Festival and home to multiple restaurants, stores, and parks! Or, if snowmobiling or ATVing is your preferred way to travel, hop on the Newport/Dover-Foxcroft Rail Trail less than a half-mile down the road from the house and follow it right into town and beyond. Are you ready to make your move?
