Description

Set on a rise in Dresden, this 1761 home offers the kind of structure and setting that cannot be replicated. A long private drive leads to the house, completely removed from the road, where elevation and mature trees create a sense of privacy that defines the property from the start. The original home dates to the mid-1700s, with an ell added in 1907. Inside, the character is immediately apparent -- wide plank flooring, exposed beams, and ceiling heights that feel uncommon for a home of this era. The layout has been partially opened while still respecting the structure's historic framework. The home will benefit from updates and cosmetic improvements, to bring it back to its full potential. What remains intact are the elements that matter most: scale, materials, and presence. The stacked rock foundation and dirt-floor basement beneath the original section reflect its 18th-century origins, while systems have been improved over time, including a drilled well, a four-bedroom septic system installed in 2002, and updated electrical service. A two-story cedar shingled barn, built in 2002, adds immediate functionality. The ground level provides almost 900 square feet of open workshop space with power and heat. Upstairs, a finished gathering area includes a kitchen, bathroom, and bar, creating an event-ready space that can serve a variety of uses. The barn offers a practical counterbalance to the home -- usable space from day one while the house is thoughtfully improved. The yard is designed for gathering. A bocce ball court, gazebo, and covered grill area create a central outdoor space, surrounded by large trees and open lawn. The property has a history of hosting regular get-togethers, and the layout supports that naturally. With frontage on Cedar Grove Road and Ludwig Road, the parcel offers substantial flexibility. Roughly 10 minutes to I295 and close to Bath, Damariscotta and Augusta.
