33 Charles Farm Trail, Rome, ME 04963

This property offers a rare opportunity to own 282 acres with a 2-bedroom home in Rome, Maine, ideal for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers. Located in the Belgrade region, the property is conveniently close to Waterville, Augusta, and Farmington—each about 30 minutes away. It's also just 10 minutes from the Belgrade Lakes Golf Course and public boat launches, making it an excellent location for those seeking both tranquility and accessibility. The land features a varied topography, from wetlands and brooks to a hilltop at 540' providing diverse natural landscapes. With some clearing, additional scenic views could be uncovered. The established trail system allows for walking, snowshoeing, ATV riding, and snowmobiling directly from the property. The property's wildlife-rich environment includes bear, deer, fox, and various water birds, often captured on game cameras. The trails, once used for bird dog training and hunting, meander through the terrain, and the land has been lightly harvested, leaving mature timber for future use. Currently enrolled in the Maine Tree Growth Program, the new owner will have the opportunity to work with a forester to update the management plan to suit their objectives. A small onsite pit provides material for trail and road maintenance. The trail system returns to the homestead, which includes a 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath modular home built in 1977 and remodeled in 1997. The home offers a kitchen, dining area, living room, laundry room, large storage closet, and a 3-season porch. The oversized 2-car garage includes a workshop area with a separate electric panel. Additionally, a 12' by 20' pavilion with a gravel pad is perfect for outdoor living. Historically, the site was the generational Charles Family farm, but a fire destroyed the original barn and farmhouse. Sitting at the end of the discontinued Charles Farm Trail, the home offers a private and quiet yard with a 900-foot buffer from the main road.
