Property Description
Built circa 1790, this antique Cape dates back to Fairfield's earliest years and may be among the oldest surviving homes in town. Rich in history and full of potential, this spacious property offers the chance to bring a piece of Maine's past back to life.
Currently configured as a two family home, the property could easily be converted back to a single family residence. The main home features a large kitchen with ample cabinet space, a separate dining room for family gatherings, and a comfortable living room centered around a cozy wood stove. A spacious family room with built-in shelving would make an ideal library, home office, or gathering space. A first floor bedroom, and full bathroom complete the first level.
Upstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms and another full bathroom. The vacant apartment offers two generously sized bedrooms and a full bathroom, providing flexibility for rental income, multigenerational living, or guest space.
Throughout much of the home, you'll find beautiful hardwood floors that add to its timeless character.
Situated on 2.1 surveyed acres, the property also features a large three-car garage, a flat paved driveway, and an in-ground swimming pool that has not been used in many years.
Priced to sell, this property is ready for its next chapter. Bring your vision, roll up your sleeves, and restore this historic home to its former glory. Opportunities to own a large historic property at this price point do not come around often.
Don't miss your chance to make this piece of Fairfield history your own!
