A Rare Opportunity Along Pleasant Cove Set on 63.5 private acres with deeded access to Pleasant Cove on the Damariscotta River, this historic Maine farmhouse offers a rare blend of beauty, history, and peaceful living. Built in the mid-1800s and cared for by only two families over its lifetime, the home has been thoughtfully preserved and updated. Original wide-plank floors, hand-trimmed woodwork, and the distinctive newel post at the staircase reflect a deep respect for the home's past. Natural light fills the space year-round, especially in winter when the sun streams through the south-facing windows. Two wood-burning stoves bring comfort and warmth throughout the colder months. A path from the house leads through a meadow to the cove—ideal for kayaking, swimming, or simply taking in the quiet. In summer, fireflies fill the fields. In winter, the woods behind the home offer peaceful walks and seasonal beauty. What makes this property unique, though, is how it feels. Many guests describe an immediate sense of calm the moment they arrive. It's a place where life slows down, and space opens up—inside and out. The original family's descendants have visited the home in recent years. They've expressed their gratitude that the character of the land and house has been preserved, not replaced. ''Our hope is to pass this home on to someone who will do the same—someone who will care for the land, live simply and well, and appreciate what makes this place so special.'' This is more than a real estate transaction. For the right person, it will feel like the opportunity of a lifetime.
