About 4079 Highway 3
Nestled on over 5 acres of oceanfront land, this property offers a rare blend of historic charm and future potential. The original century farmhouse has seen many important upgrades - including new electrical, plumbing, insulation, and structural work - giving you a solid foundation to work with while you plan your next steps. Move in and enjoy the character of the home, with its original woodwork, wide-plank floors, and flexible layout that includes 4-5 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and generous living spaces. The kitchen and dining area are ready for your finishing touches, offering a chance to create something truly your own. But what really sets this property apart is the land itself. With over 5 acres stretching toward the shoreline, there's ample space to build a new home closer to the water - ideal for those dreaming of a custom coastal retreat. Once your new build is complete, the existing farmhouse could easily become a guest house, income-generating rental, gallery, or home-based business. Located just 30 minutes from Yarmouth, this is a peaceful, inspiring property that invites creativity - whether you're restoring, building, or both.
