The coast is close. The pace is slower. The taxes are low. Set back from the road on a peaceful one-acre lot, this ranch is a place where comfortable living comes naturally while keeping everyday conveniences within easy reach. Spend the day at Swan Lake State Park just 10 minutes away, explore the waterfront, restaurants, and shops of Belfast or Searsport in about 20 minutes, then return home to quiet evenings, a crackling fire, and a backyard surrounded by mature trees. Designed for easy one-level living, this home has been lovingly cared for over the years. The spacious living room creates a warm and inviting place to gather, flowing into a beautiful kitchen with GE Cafe appliances, granite countertops, and soft-close cabinetry. Two bedrooms provide comfortable retreats, with a convenient half bath adjoining one of them, while the full bathroom is located between the two bedrooms. The full basement adds valuable space for storage or hobbies. Step outside and you'll find a backyard designed to be enjoyed. A stone patio creates space for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or simply unwinding, while the welcoming firepit invites evenings under the stars. Thoughtful improvements: including a Vermont Castings Aspen woodstove in the living room, extensive tree work, improved drainage and stonework around the foundation, added septic risers and more - reflect years of pride in ownership and careful stewardship. With annual property taxes under 1,500, and a location that keeps some of Maine's favorite destinations within easy reach, this home brings together comfort, value, and convenience. Bangor and Newport are approximately 35 minutes away, while Belfast, Searsport, and the Maine coast are about 20 minutes from home. Life feels a little different here: slower, quieter, and connected to everything that makes this part of Maine so special. Ready to see it? Let's Go!
