Step back in time at the meticulously maintained and lovingly restored October Farm. Purposefully positioned on the land, this bucolic site was purchased by James Tuttle in 1731 with the main house dating to 1741. Spanning four acres of verdant fields, generous gardens and a picturesque pond, October Farm is perfect for the naturalist, the small farmer or anyone that wants to experience a more rural life. 224 Tuttle Road is the quintessential New England farmhouse. Although restored, the exterior appears much as it did nearly 300 years ago and 35 years prior to America declaring its independence. The interior reflects the owner's admiration and attention to every detail. From plaster wall and window restoration to painstaking research to find just the right wrought iron latches, this is a master class. While many parts of the house are preserved, an equal number have been updated to meet the needs of today's lifestyle. The vaulted ceiling, open concept kitchen and great room are a modern masterpiece and look onto the fields and pond. Along with a modern farmhouse kitchen, the main level offers a spare bedroom, full bath, reading room, formal dining, library and sitting room. The second floor offers two bedrooms with full bath and an expansive primary suite with a dedicated bath. Outside, we head to the barn and attached cottage. Open the door and you are transported to the English Countryside. You can't help but be charmed at every corner and in every room. This area was completely reimagined by the owners and offers living, dining, galley kitchen, living room with direct garden access, laundry and generous bedroom. Talk about the perfect place for guests, multi-generation living or an ideal ADU. The cottage is attached to one of the most memorable and remarkable barns in Maine. This breathtaking 100' structure has been and is home to livestock and now offers a terrific 400sq/ft art, pottery, writing, working.. studio. See property address website for more details.
