Affordable Quiet Country Home with Potential

Description

Tucked away in the peaceful woods of Burlington, a small town
just south of Lincoln, Maine, lies a rare opportunity to own a true year-round
hunting and fishing camp, ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, hobby farmers, or
anyone seeking a quiet life in rural Maine. Set on 1.8± acres with wooded edges
and open fields, this 3-bedroom, 1-bath property offers 1,248 square feet of
living space, utility connections in place, and a rich past rooted in both
self-reliance and simplicity. Whether you’re looking for a homestead, seasonal
retreat, or affordable rural home base, this versatile property offers room to
grow a garden, explore the surrounding countryside, and enjoy life at your own
pace.

Built in 1956, the house has a solid structure with
character and potential. It features an enclosed porch entry, a full basement,
and a conveniently attached woodshed, all waiting to be brought back to life
with a bit of elbow grease. The home is currently livable and functional, with
an oil-fired forced hot air (FHA) furnace and an Ashley woodstove providing
warmth during Maine’s colder months. While the roof does need to be
re-shingled, it is not currently leaking, and the home is protected from the
elements. Inside, the house will benefit from some renovations including
replacing ceilings, removing wallpaper, and upgrading the linoleum flooring,
but the bones are strong and the layout is practical. A few updates could
transform this home into the perfect rustic getaway or efficient full-time
residence.

The home sits on a paved public road for easy year-round
access. Utilities are already in place, including a private well, septic
system, and on-grid electric service, saving you the cost and hassle of new
installations. With 3 bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a good sized country
kitchen, the home is just the right size for a small family, couple, or
individual looking for a manageable, affordable property in the heart of Maine.
