Property Description
A truly distinctive Southern Maine offering, New Leaf Farm encompasses 79+ acres of productive farmland, open fields, woodland, water resources, and a historic homestead with beautiful views toward Bradbury Mountain State Park. Approximately 25 acres of open fields feature sandy loam soils, gentle slopes, and abundant water, creating an exceptional setting for agricultural use, a private homestead, or a variety of future possibilities. At the heart of the property is a five-acre homestead featuring a 2,900-square-foot farmhouse that combines a 150-year-old Cape with a newer main portion constructed in 2008. An attached 1,200-square-foot barn adds character and functionality, complemented by a 3,400-square-foot steel equipment building, 600-square-foot livestock barn, and a 1,280-square-foot heated, year-round solar propagation greenhouse with workspace and office areas. With more than a century of agricultural history, the property operated as a certified organic commercial vegetable farm from 1983 through 2014. Multiple hoophouses, cultivated fields, and a well-established orchard with 25 apple trees remain part of the property's agricultural legacy. Today, approximately 24 acres of open field are hayed by a local farmer, while additional acreage remains available for cultivation. Approximately 44 acres of mixed hardwood and softwood forest provide privacy, wildlife habitat, and firewood. Water resources include a half-acre irrigation pond, two drilled wells, and one dug well. A 5,600-square-foot composting pad provides additional outdoor storage and farm functionality. Rich in history, natural beauty, and agricultural resources, New Leaf Farm offers a rare opportunity to own an extraordinary piece of Southern Maine and create upon a remarkable legacy.
