Beautifully Energy Efficient 100 + Year Old Showcase Home

Having completed hot/dry and cold/wet test houses IBACOS and the Department of Energy, GEE is proud to offer a fully and beautifully remodeled energy efficient 100 + year old home in Maine.  For sale to some lucky buyer, the Wow and Done factors on this project speak for themselves (see 198 Pond Rd Flyer). Testing during one of the country’s coldest winters in recent history, our Energy package with Mini-Split heating and cooling system preformed amazingly!

The home has undergone a gut renovation including an energy retrofit that makes it one of the most efficient and comfortable homes in the area. This is not a lipstick on a pig remodel. The heat pumps that provide the winter warmth also cool in the summer. Triple pane windows also contribute to the comfort. The updated floor plan has a first floor master suite with walk through his and hers closets. The new master bath has a tiled cast iron tub-shower. The open floor plan features a new kitchen-dining area and family room with cork floors. The island kitchen has granite counters, gas convection range, two ovens, dishwasher and huge cabinet depth refrigerator. Upstairs are two large bedrooms and a full bath/shower. The second floor also has a large open area with cork floors that is set up to be a second living room (or study/library/den/office). The maintenance free exterior has a metal roof and new vinyl siding over a special Swiss membrane that contributes to the efficiency as well. A front screened in porch and rear porch offer sheltered outdoor space to contemplate the large yard. The septic system is new. The oversized two car garage has underground 60 amp service and new overhead insulated doors and could easily be heated. The gas piping is set up with a manifold so you can easily add a gas dryer, generator or gas fireplace. The grounds included at $249,900 are two acres of lawn, field and woods. There are a total of fifteen acres of wooded and open space available. This property would lend itself to horses or light agriculture such as greenhouses. The abandoned Narrow Gauge railroad runs diagonally through the property and there are several trails in addition to the elevated railroad bed and abandoned granite bridge abutment that is an ideal picnic spot. The property abuts the interstate snowmobile trail system. This old homestead is exactly one mile from the center of town offering excellent walking and biking to banks, post office, Reny’s, grocery, and drug store. There are excellent dining options and an incredible movie theater in town as well.
