Old Town, ME 04468 202 Fourth Street

Welcome to this Old Town property with historic qualities. This home is 200 years old but updated for energy efficiency, with added insulation, Thermo Pride furnace, and top shelf windows in most openings. The sellers have maintained an organic yard as well as a very productive garden in the heart of Old Town. Move in on time and you will be the harvesters of an October crop of raspberries. This property boasts a huge asparagus bed. While this is great, the seller has always kept in mind home efficiency while remaining organic. The yard has not been treated with pesticides in at least 45 years. The house has premium Rusco storm windows on all windows, except two, those being double glazed Weathershield. Also, 10 of the 12 downstairs windows are premium JeldWen double glazed LowE, protected by those Rusco storms. If you are familiar with older homes, you will understand how important this is. ( Look back to documents on the low rate of energy use.) The seller knows quite a history about this home and is willing to share. Just one interesting fact is that 3 Red Paint Indian burial graves were found on the property and excavated by the Smithsonian in 1902. Excavation findings are archived in the Old Town Public Library as well as in Washington, DC. Make an appointment and you can live tucked away in a historic home in Old Town.
