Enjoy all the amenities of country living, within walking or driving distance to all amenities! This unusually large and beautiful in-town property provides loads of private outdoor space and 3 decks for entertaining or rest. This home is located on acreage that belonged to one of the original founders of East Machias, Wooden Foster. Mr. Foster was Colonel Benjamin Foster's brother. Colonal Benjamin Foster was a leader of the Machias settlement in counsel and action during the Revolutionary War. Since 1763, this land has belonged on and off to the same Foster family line of descent. This circa 1800 center chimney cape has been lovingly maintained by the same family for the past 16 years. While it has been utilized strictly as a single family residence, the rear is capable of functioning as a guest apartment, studio, or professional office. The improvements have been substantial, however, great attention has been given to maintaining the original character of the home. The center chimney has been retrofited to accommodate 3 working wood stoves, and 2 additional wood stoves have been added in the kitchen and great room. The original plaster walls have been restored and pumpkin pine flooring has been refinished. The kitchen has been fitted with granite counter tops. Custom window coverings adorn every window. The formal dining room is classic with toile-covered walls. Make this beautiful property yours today!
