The ultimate lifestyle opportunity,this landmark Maine property combines upscale modern interiors within an exquisitely preserved historical farmhouse; a rare opportunity not to be missed. Dating back to the Revolutionary War period, the Peter White House, as it has been known, was redesigned by renowned architect John Calvin Stevens at the turn of the 19C, when owned by G. Morrill of the Burnham & Morrill Co, famous for their B&M brick oven baked beans. The 11ac quintessential New England estate has been the coveted residence of prominent businessmen and doctors for generations, and is now the home of a successful woman entrepreneur and her young family. Its pastoral fields,orchards,organic food gardens, greenhouse,woodfire sauna,charming playhouse,Waldorf inspired sand box,forest,stonewall grotto, maple sugar shack and animal barn make this a storybook setting to bring up the next generation, homestead, or lead a gentleman farmer lifestyle. In 2022, the main 4068sqft heritage home saw a major renovation, and now boasts one of the most striking kitchens in the state, feat. top-of-the-line SubZero, Stuv & Wolf appliances and white quartz countertops. Restored pine floors, generous natural light, and a classic white palate give the home a palatial, bright and airy feeling; the perfect modern farmhouse. A delight in every season, the grounds boast cherry blossoms and perennial bulbs in spring, verdant pastures in summer, a cathedral of orange, red and yellow leaves in autumn, and snow covered branches in winter evoke living in a Christmas movie. Beyond the main house is the carriageway which contains a newly renovated 700sqft studio, perfect for AirBnB or visiting friends and family, not to mention endless loft storage. As you turn into the rock-wall lined drive you'll feel like you've landed at a pastoral oasis, though you're only 6mins to all major shops, 10mins to Sebago Lake, and just 30mins to Portland's PWM Int'l airport world-class dining scene.
