Property Description
Motivated Sellers! They have loved this property for the last 10 +/- years, but are now moving on to the next phase of their life. With frontage along the Penobscot River, this 10-acre property provides access through the woods to over 500 feet on the river. The two-story, 2-bedroom home with a den for company or an office, is rich with character, featuring warm wood finishes and inviting living spaces. The outdoor space is good for recreation, gardening, or simply unwinding in a private, wooded setting. The home's layout provides comfortable living with ample room, while maintaining a cozy, cabin-like feel. Property has recently replaced appliances, some new windows and a radon mitigation system, but there are some updates needed and sellers will consider pricing concessions. This property also offers versatile outbuildings for poultry, hobby farming, workshop space or extra storage, along with ample open space for gardens and outdoor enjoyment. Whether you're dreaming of a small homestead, fresh eggs, or cultivating your own vegetables and flowers, this property provides the flexibility and space to make it your own. Its location also provides easy access to Bangor's shopping, medical facilities and airport as well as Bucksport's amenities, the Penobscot Bridge & Observatory and historic Fort Knox. This unique property delivers tranquility and space as a year-round residence, a vacation retreat, or a nature-inspired getaway. Sellers are serious! .
