Land with Home for Sale in Brooks, Maine

Architect designed and built in 2007, this contemporary home sits well back from Underpass Road on 16 acres. The surrounding land is rolling and lush, with numerous apple trees and a small barn. The house is arranged over three levels, with high ceilings, large windows, and an open layout that brings in substantial natural light. The main level includes the kitchen/living space, with stairs rising alongside large windows to the sleeping loft above. The walkout ground level contains the home's bathroom, a sauna area with a covered bathtub, laundry, and access to a three-season workshop. A section of the house has a grass-covered roof, and a rooftop deck overlooks the surrounding land. Heat pumps provide heating and cooling, with a wood stove as an additional heat source. The property has a private drilled well and septic system. Its compact scale, privacy, and unconventional design make this home equally well suited to year-round living or a distinctive second home.
