Property Description

There is a particular pleasure in an older Maine home that faces the sun and offers views layered in the greens and gold of a rural setting. It brings to mind peaceful summer evenings, deep nights, and the smell of freshly hayed fields. Here at 51 Toll Bridge Road, you'll find plenty of south-facing windows that fill this renovated farmhouse with light and overlook gardens, open fields, and neighboring farms. Just ten minutes from downtown Rockland, and even closer to Thomaston, it feels quietly settled in the countryside. Like many homes of this era, this three-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath house has a collection of livable spaces, each with a purpose and a little character of its own. The first level features a bright living room overlooking the deck, a cozy 1st-floor den or office, a small, seasonal sun porch with a day bed, a dining nook, and a back pantry/mudroom. Wood floors and custom built-ins throughout add warmth to a place shaped by someone who has enjoyed living and working in it. The current owners brought new life to the kitchen, added heat pumps and efficient heating systems, and replaced windows and exterior siding. The house has undergone additional weatherization improvements, including insulation and air sealing, to increase comfort through the seasons. Outside, there is room to grow whatever you like. Established perennial flowers and herbs, and trees that blossom and bear fruit. The large two-car garage has its own workshop and storage above, ready for projects, tools, and everything you'd need to caretake this nearly 1-acre plot.
