Extraordinary equestrian estate, named Maine's 2010 Horse Farm of Merit. On a quiet road in a quiet neighborhood, the contemporary home exudes elegance and creature comfort. It has four large bedrooms each with its own bathroom. The living room hosts a wood burning fireplace that not only heats the living room but provides anbience to the adjoining screen-in porch. The kitchen is well appointed and looks out onto the dining area, library, office, and sunken informal living room with its electric fireplace. There is an art studio on the second floor with ample light, high ceilings and bins to store the canvases.It would also make a nice study/office. On the main floor is an exercise room complete with an "endless lap pool"and doors out to a stone patio and gardens. From the house one can exit into the oversize garage with another heated bathroom/laundry room/ supply room for the boarders to use.From there you can enter into the long and wide main aisle of the barn with its hot and cold water wash rack, eleven box stalls of which one is a foaling stall, hay storage overhead and an adjoining 60x80 ft expandable indoor arena with sand and stone dust footing. Out back of this structure is a state of the art nutrient management system. The property's 22 acres is made up of several large paddocks enclosed with electric wire wrapped pvc pipe fencing, three run-out sheds, a two bay equipment garage, a 100x150 outdoor arena enclosed in a wooden fence with permaflex rubber and sand footing, and a 56 foot in diameter round pen. The property abuts conservation land which offers miles of trails. For the ocean-going folks, it is only seven miles to picturesque Boothbay Harbor.
