Discover this quintessential log cabin home, privately set back from the road on nearly 20 acres of versatile wooded land. Blending rustic charm with modern conveniences, this property offers endless possibilities for those seeking a peaceful rural Maine lifestyle. Located just 5 miles along main roads from downtown Belfast and the coast, you wind up a dirt driveway to arrive in another world. You'll be welcomed by a covered entryway into the home and drawn into the inviting open-concept living space. Centered around a striking stone fireplace, the great room boasts vaulted ceilings and warm wood floors throughout. The recently renovated kitchen is equipped with everything you need for modern cabin living, while the covered porch spanning the width of the house provides the perfect spot to enjoy the outdoors in any weather. The first floor also includes two pleasant bedrooms and a full bathroom. In the upstairs loft is the third bedroom with a balcony overlooking the great room. The property's history nods to the days when Waldo was home to bustling sawmills that supported Belfast's shipbuilding legacy. Check out the light fixture made out of an old saw blade! The grounds feature a level sunlit field just behind the house, several spacious barns, a small unfinished guest cottage, various outbuildings (some usable and others good for salvageable materials perhaps), as well as plenty of woods to explore. For even more access to nature, you're in easy walking distance to a Hills-to-Sea Trailhead to jump on the scenic 47 mile footpath connecting Belfast and Unity (home of MOFGA). Whether you're dreaming of a year-round Maine getaway, or starting a farm or a home-based business, this property delivers endless potential. Come explore the possibilities!
