SOLD Allagash, ME Riverfront Home | Maine Real Estate

[@PSU_Florida75]

Love the house but the cat made the video. I couldn't help but to laugh for a few minutes because you could hear the desperation in that cat's meow! Lol She was dying to be touched! 🤣🥰

[@HokieJuju]

Absolutely gorgeous property!!! A dream home!! OMG the cat absolutely STOLE the show!!! Her showing off on the counter like she was modeling was absolutely hilarious!!!! She’s quite a social butterfly & very talkative!!!! This house & the garage are absolutely phenomenal!!!

Thanks for sharing.

When I heard the cat meow I thought there’s the welcoming committee and then you said the same thing. Had a good laugh

[@tomhincks9437]

Rick this has to be one of the nicest properties you’ve shown in a while.

[@richardtheriault7624]

Thanks Tom, I would agree.

[@vallovesnature8449]

Absolutely gorgeous home, workshop, & property. I’m guessing you didn’t bring any catnip & treats with you😂. Thanks so much for the tour Rick!!

[@richardtheriault7624]

No cat treats. The cat was quite talkative.

[@sandyg3639]

Rick, This is a beautiful property. All the beautiful wood and beams and large open space on the first floor is amazing. The beautiful lake frontage really makes this home special. Thank you Rick for showing this wonderful property.

WOW someone put some thought into this property build, well done 👍

Beautiful house, workshop and property, Rick!! Hopefully I can find something like this, a little further south in central or lower Maine or upper NH.

The area and home is heaven to me. I can't afford it but it's worth the price. ❤

[@lisabibby6274]

Beautiful piece of property and home with all the extras.

[@pickyaudiophile]

Deprived of it's territory kitty seems not OK with sales activity. However, what a beautiful spot. Nice spacious home with plenty of headroom and variable incidence of light during the course of the day. Compellingly scenic area all around.

[@JMVideos7676]

C'mon man that cat was begging for a little attention. A pet or belly rub should have been given. :)

Hungry!

Do me a favor pet the cat. I don't understand how you could just continue on without acknowledging me guardian of the house LOL

Beautiful house but those high ceilings-- all your heat will naturally rise to the upper level. Nice in summer but with a 6 month winter?

You apparently have never experienced radiant heat. It stays warmer near the floor where you are.

Beautiful. I would never sell this or leave. A wonderful home and garden.

[@lifestyleproperties]

We agree!

[@HokieJuju]

I thought the same thing!! I don’t know how the owners are going to be able to part with the house, the views & the absolute serenity there!!!!

[@driveyoutransportation4394]

@@HokieJuju My mom sold the cottage. My family had it 41 years. My parents turned it into a beautiful year round home. They added a 3 car garage and heated walkway to the house. They were going to retire there. My mom didn't want to stay there without my Dad, she was saddened by remaining there without him. I couldn't talk her out of selling it. She asked me if she should save some of the land and I told her not to bother because then we would just be looking at what used to be ours. So, she sold it all. All the land and even some boats and the old town vintage canoe we had in the rafters. I am so deeply saddened. My Dad wanted it to remain in the family. All my memories at the Lake are in my head and bring me happiness. The sound of water slapping the hull is one of my favorite sounds, right after a 5am loon call.

[@HokieJuju]

@@driveyoutransportation4394that’s SO sad!!! My heart breaks for u. It makes sense why your mom didn’t want to stay there anymore but it’s tragic that the place where so many memories were made & a place your dad obviously loved, a place that meant so much to u, was lost to u. My family has been through something very similar but for different reasons & it sucks!!!! 😥 I’m glad u have your many wonderful memories to hold onto & treasure!!

Wow amazing property for a super price! How's the fishing, I could retire a happy man spending my summers fishing and then headed south in the RV once winter arrives

[@lifestyleproperties]

Plenty of good fishing in Maine. The St John and Allagash are both excellent. Many wild trout ponds in the north woods to explore. Call Rick for more info on the home. 207-731-9902

[@bella4u08]

I really like that house. I am also looking in Minnesota rural.

[@pickyaudiophile]

That's a good alternative. All around lake Lake Superior it's so beautiful, especially MN North Shore and MI Upper Peninsula. Don't look any further south or west, it will become highly vulnerable to draught and heat waves in the years to come! Duluth area seems like a sleeping giant still.

Incredible property , how does such a pristine area have arsenic in the water ?

[@richardtheriault7624]

Arsenic is actually fairly common according to the DEP in groundwater. Water testing when buying a property is prudent to make that determination. The water treatment system does a good job of removing the arsenic and softening the water.

No. Enjoy your brew.

Nicely presented. Beautiful area. How much real estate does the govt own?

[@mikecaprock9684]

Fantastic ! Is this on the floodplain?

[@richardtheriault7624]

Not a flood plain but a flood zone. The property has not had water from spring run off, but areas nearby in Allagash have flooded in the spring.

[@mattambrosano4954]

Really nice home and property, but with the falling real-estate value and lack of industry in the area, it's an unitanable price point.

[@richardtheriault7624]

I completely disagree with your analysis. Today lack of industry for this type of property has very little to do with market value. Country homes in rural areas are the desired property type to have. Real Estate values are still trending upwards, not down.

@@wellthatsfantastic6981 In this case it is the Canadians that suffer more than the U.S. citizens. Fort Kent is the community for healthcare, shopping, services etc. Not being able to get into Canada, is not really a problem.

Rick, my wife and I have a small renovation company here in suburban Boston area. Is there demand for that type of work up there. We specialize in mostly finish carpentry, tile work and just about all aspects of residential construction. Looking to get out of the city but nervous about securing a steady income. Thanks

You will have all the work you can handle. Trades of all kinds have plenty of work. No problem what so ever hanging a shingle out.

[@brianwaloweek6770]

Rick are there bidding wars over the homes you guys have for sale?

[@calfortrump9399]

Mentioning the social environment, other than seclusion, would be helpful; e.g., location of schools, churches, income, merchants, transportation, etc. Do like the heated floors. 😁 Well-articulated, however.

[@richardtheriault7624]

Actually talking about some of the items you mentioned would land me in violation of Fair Housing rules and regulations. That is why there is never any mention of churches, schools etc.

Let me ask you a question Rick. I've lived on Cape Cod for 40yrs. I've finally had my fill of every summer, the tourists taking over our beaches, restaurants, grocery stores, etc.. I'm ready to sell and I'd love to live up in this area for my remaining years. Tell me, am I going to have the same problems up there as I do here?

[@richardtheriault7624]

No. You will not have that level of tourism. The area does get busy at times, but all things being relative, busy in northern Aroostook County is not busy compared to the rest of the world.
