This finely renovated Colonial style Farmhouse rests on 7.3+/- acres of deep-water frontage on the Sheepscot River, and is located on highly coveted Westport Island, Maine! This 3-story home features 3,346+/- sf of light airy living spaces and has been completely renovated with great attention to detail. The 1st floor includes a beautiful kitchen with exceptional views of the river with dining and living spaces and 1/2 bath. The 2nd floor includes several bedrooms, study/reading spaces and two full baths, and the ''attic'' space includes two more bedrooms and another full bath. From this home you can watch incredible sunrises directly over the Sheepscot River from your easterly facing rear porch and deck; then later in the day, enjoy exceptional sunsets from your west facing front porch and covered/converted greenhouse structure. Imagine for a moment taking your golf cart with fishing supplies in-hand down to the pier and dock to fish for the morning, or spending family time picnicking down by the river or enjoying an evening firepit in the vast open space, or even more exciting would be to imagine building a new home closer to the Sheepscot River and use the existing home as guest space creating a truly superb family compound or use it as an income producing vacation rental destination - so much room and so many possibilities! There is 15+/- feet of deep water at the float at mean low water and a riverside shed building for all your boating/fishing supplies and equipment. And if that is not enough, this impressive offering comes fully furnished with all furniture, kitchen dishware, pots and pans, and even the zero-turn mower!
