About this home

Back on the market due to an unmet buyer contingency, through no fault of the property or seller. Welcome to Aequanimitas Farm, a place for peaceful living. Set on 3 beautiful acres along a quiet dead-end road, this charming 1896 farmhouse feels miles away yet is only minutes from town. Enjoy sunrise and morning coffee from the farmer's porch while overlooking established flower gardens, organic fields, and views of Moose Hill. For 53 years, the current family has lovingly cared for this special property and preserved its historic charm. Inside, sunlight filters through panes of rippled antique glass, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. When winter arrives, the farm feels like a snow globe. The old-fashioned wood-burning cookstove offers a cozy place to settle in and enjoy the beauty of a Maine snowfall. The magnificent three-story barn has housed farm animals, a woodworking shop, and a floral workshop. The farm was also home to Gnome Gardens, a beloved local floral business. Its creativity lives on in the mature trees, flower beds, specimen plants, organic raspberry beds, native fiddlehead patches, and a giant daffodil bed once used for the owner's "Flowers for Food" fundraiser. The enchanting Gnome House, formerly the farm's flower shop, is surrounded by gardens and offers inspiring possibilities for a studio, shop, or creative venture. Farmington is approximately 10 minutes away, with Augusta and Lewiston-Auburn about 30 minutes away. Western Maine's lakes, mountains, and year-round recreation are all within reach. More than a farmhouse, this is a rare opportunity to carry forward a legacy. Whether you dream of homesteading, growing flowers, pursuing a home-based venture, or simply having room to breathe, this one-of-a-kind property is ready to welcome its next steward.
