Built in 1882 this classically styled home offers the generous accommodations afforded by five bedrooms and two bathrooms. A long slate counter and sink provide excellent work space and a separate pantry provides more. Main floor living spaces flow from eat-in kitchen to formal dining room, through to the hardwood floored living room and beyond. There are a first floor bedroom and bath. Wood stove heat adds to the cheery ambience this home offers. Well insulated, this is a surprisingly energy efficient home, with the owners reportedly using minimal oil and just 3-5 cords of wood many heating seasons. Four bedrooms and a full bath fill out the second floor. A wood shed entry provides good security against poor weather when entering as well as space for wood or other storage worthy items. A three level post and beam shop could be converted to artist's studio, guest house or living space, but serves now as a spacious work area and storage. A second single level outbuilding offers possibilities also. For the outdoor buff, nearby are public access points to several pristine fishing or boating lakes and the Sunrise Trail is just a few hundred feet away. The ocean is a short drive as well. Perfectly suited to a use as a primary residence, there are home business or commercial possibilities as well, with a location convenient to local services and amenities and frontage on state route 191 North. Centrally located on Washington County's coastline, Ellsworth is about an hours drive as are Calais and Eastport. For work or play this is a great place to be! Additional acreage has been added bringing the lot size to 13.63 acres!
