286 Staples Hill RoadCanton, ME 04221
Welcome to a unique and amazing Maine paradise! Spanning 58 +/- acres of rolling fields and forest, this estate has 2,000 +/- feet of private, pristine frontage on beautiful Lake Anasagunticook. Whether one has a vision of a private estate, a working family homestead, or a premium investment opportunity with substantial potential, this unique and historic property offers a once-in-a-generation opportunity. At the heart of the estate is a well maintained and charming farmhouse that perfectly captures the essence of classic New England architecture.
The 1900s home underwent a significant, masterful addition in the early 2000s seamlessly blending historical character with attractive and modern upgrades. The 2000s expansion introduced a modernized chef's custom kitchen with a functional butler's pantry and an adjoining and elegant, light-filled dining room built to host memorable gatherings. The modern addition also features a large second-floor master suite complete with a private ensuite bathroom and sitting/dressing area serving as a peaceful retreat overlooking the mountains and the lake. The 2nd floor also holds 3 additional bedrooms and a 2nd full bath. On the main level, a dedicated first-floor office offers the perfect remote workspace or can easily transition into a bedroom conveniently located near the main-level full bath. Immerse yourself in nature on 1 of the 3 porches designed to highlight the property's wonderful four-season scenery. A front porch serves as the ultimate vantage point to take in the impressive views of the western mountains and the sparkling waters of the lake. The screened porch is great for sheltered outside dining. A 3rd porch off the living room serves as a quiet spot for shady, summer, outside reading. The 2-car garage has an extra workshop/potting area and an unfinished upstairs room; a potential for additional living space. So much to enjoy on this very appealing 58 Acres!
