uilt in 1900, this 1,398‑sq‑ft Cape‑style home in Kingfield, Maine, sits on a quiet cul‑de‑sac across the steep Carrabassett River. The blue exterior, new roofed porch with granite steps, and fresh front door welcome guests into a short foyer that opens onto a 261‑sq‑ft living room. The room showcases knotty‑pine framing, mixed‑grain maple floors, and four new Craftsman‑style double‑hung windows that flood the space with light.

    A 6‑ft hallway with a double‑hung window leads to a 66‑sq‑ft full bathroom. The bath features a double vanity with white quartz tops, wooden cabinets, rounded mirrors, a rectangular window, and a curtained shower. Vinyl‑plank flooring ties the space together.

    The 218‑sq‑ft eat‑in kitchen boasts recessed lighting, a maple table, sage‑green cabinets with black pulls, white quartz countertops, a sink beneath two windows, and a live‑edge table for meals. Stainless‑steel appliances, an electric range, and a double‑door pantry complete the setup. A 120‑sq‑ft mudroom and a 26‑sq‑ft laundry area accommodate storage and chores. A five‑panel door opens to a 511‑sq‑ft basement with a dirt floor and an energy‑efficient hybrid heat pump.

    The second floor hosts the primary bedroom and two additional rooms. Original pine flooring has been refinished, and the original five‑panel doors and knobs remain. The primary bedroom, located at the front of the house, features double‑hung windows overlooking the front yard, a whitewashed pine ceiling, and a single closet. The two other bedrooms measure 124 and 75 sq ft, each with original flooring, whitewashed pine ceilings, and a single window.

    A gravel‑stone driveway accommodates up to four vehicles, and a small storage shed sits in the backyard. Public taxes are $1,400 in 2025.

    Kingfield, just before Sugarloaf Mountain Resort, offers easy access to the 4,237‑ft peak, as well as kayaking on the Carrabassett River, hiking, biking, Nordic skiing, and snowmobiling in the Bigelow Range. The town has no short‑term rental restrictions.

    Listing agent Joanna Pineau (The Portside Realty Group) notes that the property’s price allows for season‑long lift tickets and other local expenses. For inquiries, contact John R.
