Situated on a sunny knoll that was once part of the historic Long Hill Farm, this beautiful post & beam house and barn are on the market for the first time ever. If you long to live in an antique house but prefer modern proportions and systems, this charming center-chimney Cape built in 1984 may be just the one you've been waiting for. The 4.77 acre parcel is bordered by stone walls and has been lovingly landscaped and tended by a master gardener. Curated to provide a sanctuary for pollinators and birds, the gardens are filled with both native and rare plants, shrubs and trees, plus a patio from which to enjoy them. There is even a small pond at the bottom of the meadow. Inside the 3-4 bedroom home, where many of the timbers used to frame it were harvested from the property, you'll notice custom-built raised panels, cabinets, wainscoting, a welcoming main stairwell, and wood floors throughout. Spacious, front-to-back living room with fireplace, den with fireplace, office/potential 1st floor bedroom, convenient 1st floor bathroom with shower. Large open kitchen with dining area overlooking the garden, beech and magnolia trees, adjoins a family room with wood stove and french doors to the patio. Back staircase from back hall/mudroom with built-in pantry or garden storage. The front staircase leads up to the primary bedroom with vaulted ceiling and en suite bathroom. Two additional bedrooms share another full bathroom down the hall, with clever built-in linen storage under the eaves. A large bonus space could be used as an exercise or craft room, or convert it into a quiet, home office space or guest room. The separate 2-story, post & beam barn provides wonderful storage and workshop space. Close to the Royal River Conservation Trust's 16-acre Long Hill Road Preserve and conveniently located 25 minutes to Portland, 10 minutes to Greely High School, and 8 minutes to Gray. A one-of-a-kind oasis in a busy world-- the only thing missing is you.
