Steeped in local history, this beloved French Family Farm has long operated as a working horse property and is now ready to welcome its next caretakers. Generations of thoughtful stewardship are evident throughout the barns, pastures, and beautifully maintained grounds. Set on a picturesque 8.1-acre parcel in the heart of Central Maine, this equestrian property offers the perfect blend of country living, homesteading potential, and well-designed horse facilities -- all centrally located between the mountains and Maine coast. The spacious 3,500 sq. ft. ranch-style home features 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and two comfortable living areas, offering flexibility for multi-generational living, guests, or hobby space. The main level includes the kitchen, dining area, two bedrooms, and a full bath, while the finished daylight basement adds two additional bedrooms, laundry, and a second full bath. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated over the years, the home is surrounded by gardens and fruit trees that enhance the property's peaceful, self-sufficient lifestyle. For those dreaming of a hobby farm or homestead, there is ample open land for expanded gardens, chickens, pigs, or other livestock. Equestrian amenities are equally impressive and designed with both function and care in mind. The expansive 4,500 sq. ft. barn includes six box stalls, a heated tack room, additional storage room, covered manure storage, hay storage, and a substantial two-story storage/workshop area in the back. The thoughtfully designed layout of the grounds includes one dry lot, four lush grass pastures, and a professionally designed, well-drained outdoor riding arena measuring approximately 120' x 200'. Whether you are a dedicated equestrian, aspiring homesteader, or simply seeking a peaceful rural retreat with room to grow, this remarkable property offers endless potential.
