Sited along the Penobscot River on a quiet cul-de-sac within minutes of Bucksport and twenty minutes from Blue Hill, this lovingly cared for 1998 shingle-style farmhouse set on 2.87 acres with 181' riverfront boasts three bedrooms and 2.5 baths in the main house and a private one-bedroom, one bath, kitchen/living area in the attached apartment. The main house is well appointed with an open kitchen, dining, and living area featuring many thoughtful amenities. The chef's kitchen includes a gas range plus wall oven, walnut oiled kitchen island counter and honed granite countertops. The focal point in the living area is a beautifully crafted Rumford-style wood burning fireplace surrounded by the warmth of a wood ceiling and exposed beams. From the living area, walk out one set of sliders to relax on the Farmer's Porch with river views or access the sleeping porch from a side door slider. A short distance from the porch along a natural path, you will approach a beautifully crafted wooden river view deck and waterfront staircase. Other notable features include a lovely primary bedroom suite with walk-in closet, soaking tub, separate shower, and double vanities, library/den which can easily be designated a first-floor bedroom, sunken heated solarium, new first floor heat pump, automatic house generator, attached 2-car over-sized heated garage with loads of storage and a newly cedar paneled second floor. This property has all the convenient features that make it a truly desirable place to call home-a must see to appreciate! Room count includes apartment.
