Long before the farmhouse was built in 1880, the Wabanaki people knew this land well. It was the bend in the Kennebec River that brought them here, where the strong current settles and the riverbank slopes gently to the water's edge - a perfect place to lift their birchbark canoes and carry them across this meadow to Merrymeeting Bay. You can still feel it on quiet mornings when dawn breaks over the Kennebec and the mist begins to lift - something ancient lingering still, reminding you that you are not the first to love this land. Every generation leaves its mark. Here, the current owner rebuilt the ell from the foundation up and thoughtfully restored the rest of the property. Stone and wood floors, quartz counters, quality cabinetry, all-new baths, energy-efficient windows, and the original front door, restored and gorgeous. Nothing was done in haste; the whole house reflects a single, unbroken standard of care and craftsmanship.Entering through the mudroom, the Kennebec immediately commands your attention. A wall of windows fills the kitchen with views of the river and meadow below. The kitchen is the heart of the home, and everything naturally flows from here. To the right, the living room opens around a freestanding fireplace with tall ceilings, generous sunlight, and the river always within view. Patio doors lead to a deck stretching across the back of the house overlooking the water and open land beyond.The barn continues the same thoughtful approach, offering flexible space for a workshop, studio, or simply room to spread out and breathe. Above, a fitness studio and built-in sauna look out toward the river and meadow below. To the north, Butler's Head Preserve is an easy walk through old groves of trees where ravens glide overhead, and Merrymeeting Bay opens wide before you, water and sky becoming one. Standing on the deck, looking out over the Kennebec as evening light settles across the meadow, the world feels far away - exactly as it should be

Once the heart of one of Maine's most beloved nostalgic radio stations, this elevated setting above Berry's Mill Pond is now ready for a new story. Rising above the quiet waters of the pond, the land offers long southwesterly views stretching into Mill Cove, where warm afternoon light and sunsets shimmer across pristine waters and open fields. The Cove teems with wildlife: deer moving across the meadow edges while egrets and ospreys patrol the waters. The 1971 WJTO broadcast building stands at the high point, modest, rich in history, and full of character, offering surprising flexibility as a workshop, studio, creative outpost, or basecamp while planning future possibilities. Its position, combined with the land's gentle slopes, open meadows, and sheltered shoreline, offers a range of options: gardens and orchards, a well-sited home, or even a small cluster of structures designed for shared living, multi-generational needs, or creative collaboration. Much of the surrounding landscape has been secured in permanent conservation through a local land trust, ensuring the natural setting and sense of openness endure for generations. Close to Brunswick and Bath, yet tucked away enough to feel private and serene, this setting blends convenience, history, and ecological stewardship. Sun, water, and open skies set the stage for a Maine coastal lifestyle unlike any other. Whether drawn by the view, the story, or the promise of life above one of Maine's most remarkable coves, this land awaits its next steward, ready to shape the next chapter where memories were once broadcast across the airwaves.

Just south of Fiddlers Reach, where the Kennebec River widens into Morse Cove, 213 Fiddlers Reach sits on a deep-water stretch of one of Maine's great working rivers. Here, sea air drifts upriver with the tides as broad river views stretch up the Kennebec.A quiet lane bordered by open fields and mature trees leads toward the river.
