Northern Maine Move-In-Ready Homestead. This place is set up so you have no worries or problems starting off your new life when you move in, all the necessities are there and waiting so your day to day doesn’t have to stop, or if you are an animal owner you don’t have to rehome or board them, they can move right in with you the day you arrive. It is off the main road on a quiet country side road, but not so far off that you can’t still get to a good-sized town with all the amenities quite conveniently. It affords all the privacy, safety and convenience that one would desire.

House is 3,136 sq ft of living space, and is a raised ranch split entry style. It creates living space on both levels which is ideal for larger families, or perhaps families with grown children looking for a little extra space. The home has 5 bedrooms, 3 on the main floor and 2 on the lower floor, the master bedroom being on the main floor and complete with a walk-in closet. There are 2 full bathrooms, one on each floor. There is a living area on each floor complete with TV/internet hookups. The kitchen has a large counter with plenty of cabinets underneath, and commercial gas range.

There is a 3 car garage with a tractor bay included for any tall vehicle or tractor needing stored, as well as a large work bench for making your projects easier. The barn has 3 stalls, 2 chicken or duck pens, a large hay loft, running water that can run directly into the stalls for watering animals, and electricity. The back shed has a work bench on the back wall, lots of hooks on all walls for extra storage, and is complete with electricity and lights.

The homestead is a total of 55 acres. It has a brook near the house, and a large spring fed pond able to be stocked in the front yard, creating plenty of water access. Fruit trees, berry bushes and plenty of garden space. 35 acres of the property is field, with approximately 10 acres of that in fenced pasture, maintained and ready to use. The other 20 acres is a blend of woods. The back part of the property is home to several moose, including a large bull. Lots of deer, bear, turkey and grouse are also found here, so a hunter would not have to travel far to enjoy a good hunt. There are some seasonal ducks that land on the pond on their migration as well. This place is truly a homesteader’s paradise.

We would like to do a private sale if possible with a lawyer as that is easiest and cheapest on both parties!

The small Aroostook County town of Limestone, previously known for its smooth process of car registration, dog licensing, and tax payment, has been hit by an unfortunate event. The town office has been closed indefinitely, leaving the residents in a lurch as they are unable to complete their essential paperwork. Interim Town Manager Walt Elliot had to make the tough decision to shut down the office after the town lost its two experienced clerks.

This unexpected loss has caused chaos for the community as they now have no access to these essential services. With no qualified staff to take over the responsibilities of the former clerks, the office will remain closed until suitable replacements can be found.

Residents are now faced with the challenge of traveling long distances to neighboring towns to complete their paperwork, causing them inconvenience and additional expenses. The lack of access to dog licensing, for instance, is an issue that poses risks to both pets and their owners. The inability to pay taxes also creates a concern for the financial well-being of the town, which relies heavily on these funds to provide for its citizens.

This unfortunate event serves as a reminder of the importance of having a competent workforce to manage public services. The town council is working tirelessly to resolve the issue and has expressed their commitment to finding suitable replacements as soon as possible. In the meantime, the residents of Limestone must remain patient as they wait for the office to reopen and the town to resume its usual operations.
