Description

Welcome to historic and iconic Thanksgiving Farm! Built in 1830, this delightful horse farm, nestled on 24 acres of beautiful fenced pastureland and mature trees offers a serene countryside setting in Durham and just over 30 minutes to Portland. Major improvements within current ownership include a new roof, new septic system and new boiler. This handsome antique cape features three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a large eat-in kitchen with center island designed for bar seating and cozy wood stove, a formal dining room, and an expansive living room with a beautiful gas fireplace. Very convenient, attached two car garage leads to a mudroom and the kitchen. Just steps outside, you'll find a gorgeous seven-stall horse barn complete with a heated tack room, a run-in shed, and ample hay storage and leads to an outdoor riding arena. Featuring heirloom fruit trees, perennial and vegetable gardens, and even a duck pond, the grounds are lovely and perfect for your gardening and outdoor pursuits. The property also boasts a private trail system on its own 24 acres and is adjacent to even more. This is an excellent opportunity for the avid horse lover seeking a private equestrian retreat or looking to establish a commercial boarding operation. Or, take advantage of the fenced in pastures for livestock or agricultural use or simply enjoy this rare large acreage parcel as your personal haven.
