Dream Big: Live, Work, and Entertain Near Bickford Pond

Opportunities like this don't come around often—this remarkable property blends historic charm, expansive outbuildings, and an unbeatable location just walking distance to the public boat launch and swimming access at Bickford Pond.

At the heart of the property is a beautifully maintained 1846 Colonial-style home with 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths. Inside, you'll find a cozy hearth with a working fireplace and original Dutch oven, wide pine floors, and timeless New England character. A back room with its own private entrance and heat offers the perfect space for a home office or additional bedroom. An attached one-car storage area adds convenience, and a double-seated outhouse tucked behind the woodshed adds a touch of rustic charm. Out back, enjoy peaceful mornings and evenings from the porch or deck, surrounded by crabapple and lilac trees, with multiple wood stacking areas to keep the hearth warm year-round.

Outbuildings are where this property truly shines. The three-story, 15,120 sq ft barn—originally used for chickens and later home to a thriving antique store—features a concrete first floor with an elevator that services all three levels. Whether you're envisioning a wedding venue, event center, boat/car rental facility, or large-scale workspace, this structure is ready to bring your vision to life.

Across the street from the home, the Gambrel-style two-story barn offers first-floor garage parking and a woodworking shop in the back, while the second floor is already set up for entertaining with a built-in bar, or it can easily be repurposed for hay or equipment storage.

Imagine living and working in the same place, never having to fight traffic or navigate the chaos of the city—just the peace of rural Maine living, with the space, history, and flexibility to create something truly special.
