There is something so peaceful about a farmhouse that has been standing for over 200 years. This 1820s home in Sedgwick is a beautiful example of how an old house can be updated without losing its soul. It sits on over seven acres of land and looks out toward the blue waters of Blue Hill Bay. If you love the idea of waking up to ocean views and the smell of salt air, this is the place for you. The house is filled with glowing wood floors and big windows that let in so much natural light. It has that cozy, sturdy feeling that only a house from the early 1800s can give. The owners have done a wonderful job keeping it warm with wood stoves, but they also added modern heat pumps and solar panels in 2023 to keep the bills low.
The layout is very smart, with the main bedroom and a full bath on the first floor. This makes it easy to live on just one level if you want to. Upstairs, there are three more bedrooms for family or friends. The kitchen is a dream for anyone who loves the outdoors—it opens right up to a large screened porch. From the porch, you can look out over your raised-bed gardens and greenhouse. It’s the perfect spot to spend a summer evening watching your vegetables grow. The house is centered around two cozy wood stoves, making the living and dining areas the perfect places to huddle up during a Maine winter.
One of the best parts of this property is the detached garage and studio building. It is nearly 1,000 square feet and fully heated! Whether you are an artist, a woodworker, or someone who needs a quiet home office, this space is ready for you. It even has its own wood stove and heater to keep you creative all year long. There is also a newer small barn for your tractor or a boat, and a special shed just for drying your firewood. The land stretches out behind the house into pretty woods, and the sale even includes two acres across the street to make sure your ocean views stay clear forever.
Even though you have plenty of privacy and open fields, you aren’t far from the fun. You are just a quick drive from the cute shops and harbors in Blue Hill and Deer Isle. This is a rare find—a true 1800s farmhouse that is move-in ready, eco-friendly, and offers some of the best views in Maine.
