Nestled on over 8 acres of private, wooded land, this charming home offers a perfect blend of sustainable living and serene surroundings. Ideally located only 3 miles from Bethel Village, the property sits on a gently sloping hillside with seasonal views amidst a thriving forest. A sunny yard complements the home's energy-efficient design. It is powered by a 40-panel solar array that is directly connected to the CMP system, ensuring convenience and peace of mind. Impressively, the home averaged just $50 per month via CMP for heat and power in 2024 while occupied year-round and is backed up by a whole-house propane generator.
The interior boasts an open-concept living room, dining area, and kitchen, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The primary suite offers privacy and comfort, while two additional bedrooms share a well-appointed bathroom; all of this on one level. Outside, the 700 square foot deck and firepit provide the perfect spaces to relax and enjoy Maine's four-season beauty.
Designed with thoughtful features like the Mitsubishi mini-split heat pump, handicap standards, and 18-inch cellulose insulation, the home combines modern amenities with eco-friendly living. The full, unfinished basement offers ample storage or the potential to expand living space. With southern exposure and cedar log siding completing its rustic appeal, this property is a truly exceptional place to call home.
