Property Description
Built in the 1800s, this Orrington New Englander isn't trying to be modern. It's quietly preserved--wide pine floors, exposed beams, and the kind of warmth only time creates. The story here is unmistakable: this is a true Maine original. Set on .57 acres, the home carries details you simply can't recreate--deep-set windows, built-ins, thoughtful storage, and rooms that reflect generations of everyday life. Multiple living spaces allow you to gather comfortably or spread out with ease, balancing character and function. The kitchen is a standout--generously sized, with a vaulted ceiling in the dining area that naturally becomes the center of everyday life. Storage throughout is impressively abundant for a home of this age, with dedicated nooks and smart spaces that make daily living feel easy. Upstairs are three bedrooms, along with additional storage. On the first floor, flexible space can serve as a fourth bedroom, guest room, or home office--supporting one-level living or evolving needs over time. An unheated mudroom/porch adds the practical Maine layer--boots, bags, and winter gear--while a breezeway connects to the attached two-car garage with second-story storage above, keeping projects close but out of the way. Conveniently located just 10 minutes to I-395, 10 minutes to Bucksport and the ocean, and 15 minutes to Bangor. *Note*Septic system design for 2 bedrooms. Some furniture conveys with the sale.
