211 Dinsmore RoadSidney, ME 04330Price: $300,000

If you want land and don't want to pay a fortune for it, come take a look at this one. Nearly 9 acres, set well back off the road, with a mix of open lawn and woods, the kind of privacy you can't get in town but still not far away! The house itself is a solid 3-bedroom ranch with 1,200 square feet, all on one level. Living room opens into an eat-in kitchen, which is really where everybody ends up anyway. Three bedrooms and a full bath on the first floor, plus a mudroom that'll earn its keep come mud season or snowy winters. Basement's full with walk-out stairs, unfinished, and honestly it's a blank slate that could be turned into a workshop or extra living space down the road, but even if you never touch it, it's good storage space. Metal roof, vinyl siding, heat pump water heater, private well and septic, oil/electric heat - all the stuff that matters when you're the one paying the bills, not just the one touring the house. Outside is where this place really earns its keep. Level to gently rolling ground, good for a garden, animals, trails, or just having your own woods to hunt without asking anybody's permission. Plenty of parking, easy drive to town for whatever you need. This is the kind of place that doesn't come up often for $300K with real acreage, a well-kept house, and privacy without being stuck out in the middle of nowhere. Worth a look before it's gone.
