Classic Maine Farmhouse on 8 Acres - Dixmont, Maine

Discover the timeless appeal of a classic Maine farmhouse set amidst 8± acres of rolling fields, woods, gardens, and 700+- feet of frontage on Martin Stream. With its combination of historic character, productive land, abundant gardens, fruit trees, and direct access to the water, this is a property that invites you to slow down and enjoy the best of country living.

This 3-4 bedroom, 1.5 bath home retains the warmth and character that make Maine farmhouses so special, including beautiful antique wood floors and inviting, thoughtfully arranged living spaces. On the first floor, a rustic eat-in kitchen provides the heart of the home, while a formal dining room offers plenty of space for family gatherings. The comfortable living room features a wood stove, creating a cozy retreat on cool Maine evenings.

Upstairs, the home becomes a private retreat. The second bedroom is joined by a beautiful bathroom featuring a large soaking tub, perfect for unwinding after a day outdoors. The spacious primary bedroom opens to a balcony overlooking the back field, offering a peaceful place to enjoy morning coffee, evening meals for two, and the changing seasons.

Outside, the property truly comes into its own. The gently rolling landscape includes open fields and woods, along with an impressive asparagus garden and a vegetable garden currently utilized by a local farmer. Whether you envision growing your own food, continuing the agricultural tradition, creating additional gardens, or simply enjoying the open space, the land offers possibilities rarely found so close to regional amenities.  There is also a spring fed farm pond.

And then there is Martin Stream. With over 700+- feet of frontage, the stream provides a beautiful natural boundary and an exceptional recreational amenity. Bring a kayak to the water and explore the stream from your own property, or simply sit beside the water and enjoy the sounds of nature. The combination of open land, woodland, gardens, and waterfront creates a private Maine landscape that changes beautifully throughout the year.
