About This Home

Welcome spring at this enchanting coastal farmhouse retreat, where the air is filled with fragrant blooms and cooling ocean breezes. This picturesque 1852 expanded Cape farmhouse, featuring four bedrooms and four baths, wood floors, and abundant natural light, is more than just a home. It is a private oasis offering exceptional privacy and abundant wildlife on a sprawling 4.07 acres of diverse landscape, including a private pond and mature woods. The grounds are a natural extension of the living space, encouraging outdoor living and a deep connection to the natural world. The spacious single-family home includes an attached, fully functional, legal in-law apartment, providing endless possibilities for multi-generational living or an exceptional short-term rental opportunity. This private oasis is conveniently located just one mile from Middle Beach and the University of New England, offering the perfect balance of semi-rural living and easy access to coastal amenities, beaches, and downtown Biddeford. Utility is expansive with the original barn, which features an oversized garage and a second-floor office, offering functional space or potential for conversion into a studio or guest quarters. Additionally, a large, versatile studio space is ideal as a workshop or event space for entertaining, and has the potential to be converted into a spacious 1500 SF Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) pending necessary approvals. As a nature lover's paradise, you can relax in the screened gazebo or stroll the grounds, enjoying daily encounters with abundant wildlife. Whether you are seeking a year-round residence, a peaceful coastal retreat, or a unique investment opportunity, this farmhouse provides endless possibilities.
