5 Whispering PinesFreeport, ME 04032Sale Price: $703,000

Nestled in the coastal forest of Freeport this 3 bedroom home sits on 20 private acres. Privacy galore and surrounded by nature this home was specifically designed to be one with the forest. With birds, animals, and flora and fauna surrounding the home it is a private retreat from the hustle and bustle of life. Yet the location is just a few minutes to downtown Freeport and I295. A large deck provides the perfect place to enjoy the quiet and the ocean breezes blowing through the forest. It's also the ideal spot to entertain friends and family. A new roof, heat pump, and solar panels were recently added making this home more energy efficient. The home was designed so the windows face the sun throughout the year providing passive heating and avoiding the chilly north winds during the winter. An automatic stand by generator stands at the ready if needed. A large living room, dining room, full bathroom, and kitchen with a large pantry/ china closet make up the first floor. The second floor has 3 bedrooms including the primary bedroom with a large, room size walk in closet. Bordering the Calderwood Preserve hiking is close by and Wolfe's Neck Wood's State Park is just down the road. Opportunities to have a private retreat like this don't come around too often this close to Portland. Open house Sunday, October 15th from 11 am to 1 pm. Offers due Sunday, Oct 15th by 5 pm.
