1820's Colonial Farmhouse, Edgecomb, $2,900,000

Without peer in today's market is this salt water farm with almost a mile of frontage and only an hour from Portland. These properties are vanishing on Maine’s coast, but here is a gorgeous example of what once was. A rambling eleven room 1820’s farmhouse with long vistas overlooking the Cross River has fields and stone walls that roll down to the water. Numerous coves and points of land border tidal and deepwater areas of the Cross River as it flows into the Sheepscot. A walk along the water’s edge takes you through fields of wildflowers, an old orchard, blueberries, and oak groves. There are hidden surprises: a field tucked away and set back from the shore and a large glacial erratic perched on an elevation just above the shore.

“Terrace Gables”, as it was known in the last century, was once used as a summer retreat for visitors seeking the tranquility of the Maine coast. That peace is still here.
