About this home
Step into nearly 200 years of Maine history at 268 Main Street. This classic brick farmhouse offers the character and presence of a historic home, along with thoughtful updates and plenty of room to enjoy the property. Located just 3 miles from I 295 and close to downtown Richmond, it provides a peaceful country setting without giving up everyday convenience. The Kennebec River is nearby, where you may catch a glimpse of its famous jumping sturgeon, while Pleasant Pond offers opportunities for kayaking, boating, and fishing. Set on 5 acres, the property welcomes frequent visits from deer and turkeys and features fruit trees, a fenced raised garden area with solar lights, a chicken coop, and a storage shed with a lean to. An apple orchard sits just across the road, adding to the classic Maine setting. Inside, the home offers three bedrooms, a separate office, and two recently renovated full bathrooms. A wood stove provides supplemental heat, while a new metal roof installed over the house in 2025 adds valuable peace of mind. The basement is clean and dry with a vapor barrier already in place, providing additional storage and another meaningful improvement to this historic home. This is a special opportunity to own a piece of Maine history with acreage, recreation, and convenient access to everything you need.
