Property Description
1763 ORIGINAL POST & BEAM GEORGIAN COLONIAL on 57 ACRES
Nestled in the heart of picturesque New Gloucester, 288 Tobey Road invites you to step back in time on this 57 acres of serene countryside and savor the rich history of a 1763 Georgian Colonial while enjoying modern comforts. This remarkable property, older than our country itself, offers a private escape with pasture, stone walls, and an abundance of natural beauty. Exuding timeless charm with wide pine board floors, post & beam throughout, and five fireplaces all of which are flue-lined, create a warm and inviting ambiance. The bright and recently updated kitchen boasts high-end appliances and granite countertops, seamlessly blending old-world charm with contemporary convenience all centered around the middle cooking chimney and wood stove. Five character filled bedrooms, a bonus room, and two and a half baths, there's ample room for family and guests. An automatic standby generator ensures you're never without power and a spring fed well keeps everything flourishing.
Outside, discover a fenced pasture, greenhouse, and fenced garden area, all teeming with potential for your agricultural pursuits. A small barn (hot/cold water), 2 coops and a shed, all with electricity and tucked in a fenced in pasture. Apple trees, pear trees, raspberries, and blackberries surround the home, offering a cornucopia of fresh fruits. Flower gardens add color and beauty to the landscape, especially around the stone patio. This charming property also features a large screened porch and an in-ground pool, perfect for summer relaxation after exploring the extensive acreage and marveling at never ending stone walls telling stories of generations past.
This enchanting estate is more than just a home; it's a journey through time with the comfort and luxury of the present. The possibilities are endless on this property, the life you've always imagined. -Pre-listing inspection report available.
