Tucked into nine wooded acres in Searsmont, this off grid property offers something increasingly difficult to find: room to live, work, create and simply get away from it all. Surrounded by forest, the home feels connected to the land in more ways than one, with timber harvested from the property incorporated into its construction and a landscape where deer and other wildlife are regular visitors. Around the property, local blooms, herbs and elderberry grow among the property, while small ponds, brooks and streams add to a setting that feels distinctly Maine. Inside, warm wood tones, exposed beams, a woodstove and handcrafted details carry that character throughout the home, with an open loft above and plenty of windows looking back toward the surrounding landscape. For the woodworker, carpenter, craftsperson or serious hobbyist, the garage may be just as compelling as the house. There is substantial space to work and store equipment, while the second floor has already been started and is ready for its next chapter. Create additional space for visitors, build out a workshop or studio, establish a home business, or simply keep it open for whatever comes next. A separate pole barn provides even more room for equipment and storage. This is a property for someone looking for a little more independence and a lot more room to explore. Spend your days in the workshop, tend the gardens, wander your own woods, watch wildlife move through the property or simply enjoy the quiet that comes with having nine acres around you, with more available for purchase. And while it feels decidedly removed from the everyday, it is not disconnected from the places you still want to reach. From the forests of Searsmont, both Belfast and Camden are within easy reach, with Route 3 providing a direct connection toward Augusta. A Maine property with space for the outdoorsman, the maker, the gardener and the person who has been looking for a place where life can operate a little differently.
