Property Description
'Stepping Stone Farm'' is a charming antique cape that has been lovingly maintained over the years. This is for the true New England cape aficionado with its beamed ceilings, wood floors, beautiful fireplaces, old doors with thumb-latch hardware and wood sash windows.
Like many early capes, this is one-floor living, with a series of ells added through the years to the original volume. This is a prime example of the ''big house, little house, back house, barn'' building style of the early New England era.
Beautifully sited a good distance away from the main road, there are 4.5 acres of land that includes old apple trees and a lovely well-established vegetable garden. There is a sunny deck off the back of the home that is very private and serene. An oversized one-car attached garage is also a big plus.
The roof, systems, water, and general condition is very good as old homes go. Current owners had a thorough building inspection done in Oct. 2020 which included septic, water, radon air and water. Reports available for review.
This home is ready to move right into, or if you are looking to make upgrades, you can do some cosmetic upgrades on the kitchen and baths, which remain in their retro style.
This home is an amazing value at $339,000 given the comparable homes sold, and the fact that it is in Castine. Just a few miles down the road you have the village center of this historic, elm-centric seaside town.
