Damariscotta's most significant intown property is offered on the market for the first time in over 50 years. ''Oak Gables'' offers the peace and privacy of over 9 acres of lawn, fields and ancient apple trees on 1,200 feet of west facing Damariscotta River frontage. The circa 1840's estate home looks down over the property and features four separate bedrooms plus a lovely Primary Suite with breathtaking sunrise views over the''Johnny Orr Rapids''. On the lower level are office space and a completely separate apartment with its own kitchen and bath that enjoys similar views to the Primary. The Carriage House is a multi car space and what used to be the servants' quarters above is now a very nice apartment. Another attached, small studio apartment is located on the ground level. Both have amazing views. Set away from all of this is a three-bedroom cottage style home with a delightful screened porch overlooking the river. Also on the property is a functional riverfront boat house and a large in-ground swimming pool of some age. For the owner wishing to enjoy all the benefits of being in town and on the water but at the same time having complete privacy, this property will merit consideration.
