Listed in the National Register of Historic Places, the Lt Hathorn House was built in 1784 by Lt Hathorn, a veteran of American Revolutionary War and ''Is one of the best-preserved early Federal period houses in Maine's Mid Coast Region.'' With 5 fireplaces, one with a beehive oven, original wood paneling and impressive wide pine floors, the home also has a newer ell and garage creating the perfect blend of old and new. The very large farmhouse kitchen has a central island, loads of cabinets, soapstone counters and a view of the pool and fire pit from the window over the sink. The first floor laundry and 1/2 bath are ideally located just off the mudroom, plus 2 full baths (one displaying original wall paneling preserved behind a layer of plexiglass) and expansion space over the garage. All situated on nearly 17 acres with over 600' of frontage on Nequasset Lake, the property also has a little rustic cabin down by the lake which with some TLC would be the ideal place to while away an afternoon listening to the beautiful call of the loons. This property offers an amazing combination of character, modern amenities, water frontage and acreage; a very rare find indeed. If you're dreaming of a home where you can enjoy a ''staycation'' without running out of activities, this is it! Kayak, paddle board, canoe, fish, swim, and garden all summer long. Ice skate, ice fish, and snuggle up by the wood stove in the cooler weather. A perfect combination of living a rural life while staying connected to modern life and activities. With just a quick 6 min drive to downtown Bath, 15mins to Main St. Brunswick or 45mins to Portland, enjoy everything life in Maine offers! note:3 bdr septic design
