Imagine transforming a charming former berry farm and café into your dream home, a unique mixed-use property, or your next investment venture. Overlooking Merriland Farm Golf Course and just minutes from I-95, Route One, and Wells' beaches, this exceptional property offers a rare combination of setting, flexibility, and potential.
Originally a farmhouse later converted into a thriving café, the property is currently configured and equipped to operate as a restaurant. According to the Wells Code Office, it may be eligible for conversion back to residential use—with the potential to include an attached accessory dwelling unit (ADU)—subject to applicable permitting and code requirements. Investors and visionaries alike will recognize the opportunity for continued hospitality use, a live/work arrangement, or an adaptive reuse that blends residential and commercial function.
Inside, two propane fireplaces framed in classic brick create a warm and welcoming ambiance, while a graceful spiral staircase adds architectural charm. The open layout lends itself to gatherings, dining, or future redesigns that fit your vision. Outside, a spacious patio in the front yard shaded by mature oak trees provides views of the golf course while the sun drenches the back yard creating a prime location for a garden or fire pit.
For those with vision and passion, this property is more than a house or a café—it's a new beginning.
