Property Description
Located on the west side of the Sheepscot River, the Moses Peaslee Homestead is a c. 1790s Cape in excellent condition, representing a piece of Whitefield's historic past. Move-in ready, this home boasts character-defining details throughout including high ceilings with exposed wood beams, wide pine board flooring, custom cabinetry, three large fireplaces, and unique historic trim and touches. The open-concept kitchen & dining area is well appointed with a live-edge custom wooden countertop. The light-filled library is a perfect gathering space to curl up with a book in front of an open fire. With one first level and two upstairs bedrooms and one office, there is room to grow. The living room opens onto a beautiful screened in porch with beadboard ceiling and overlooks the custom-built, wood-fired 5-person sauna. Soak in the sights and smells of the spring lilac and cherry tree blossoms. At the home's rear (main) entry, you'll find a spacious and private deck which ties the outdoor spaces together. Dabble with the raised garden beds and raise ducks or chickens in the backyard. A short walk down a forested path leads you to 171 feet of frontage on the Sheepscot River, where you might see canoers or kayakers on a beautiful day. Don't wait to take advantage of all this property has to offer.
