Property Description

Set just two miles from Sunday River Resort, this 9.5±-acre property blends privacy, natural beauty, and convenience. With 600 feet of frontage along the Sunday River, the landscape is shaped by a mature apple orchard, open meadow areas, and access to nearby trails for hiking and recreation, with Frenchman's Hole just moments away for swimming. The setting feels quietly removed yet remains connected to the region's most notable outdoor experiences. The main residence was designed with an emphasis on both comfort and functionality with generous living spaces that connect easily to the surrounding landscape. The well-appointed kitchen features custom cabinetry, Viking commercial-grade appliances, a custom brick hood, and a spacious pantry. Adjacent living spaces include a welcoming living room with custom built-ins and a gas fireplace and a sunroom that opens to an attached deck overlooking the surrounding grounds. The first-floor primary suite offers a private retreat with a soaking tub, marble shower, fireplace, sauna, and adjoining sunroom, while three additional ensuite bedrooms on the second level provide comfortable accommodations for guests. Above the attached garage, a separate apartment offers flexibility for guests or rental income. The unit includes two bedrooms, each with its own living area, along with a shared kitchen and dining space, laundry, and dedicated parking. Enjoying views of the river and surrounding mountains, the apartment has a strong seasonal rental history, with all furnishings conveying with the sale. The property is well positioned to enjoy the many recreational and cultural amenities of the Bethel area, including Sunday River Resort, Sunday River Country Club, downtown Bethel's restaurants and shops, the Maine Mineral & Gem Museum, and Gould Academy. Nearby public lands managed by Mahoosuc Land Trust and Inland Woods & Trails provide extensive opportunities for hiking, biking, and outdoor recreation, with planned trail expansions.
