OLD TOWN MAINE RIVER FRONTAGE CALL OR TEXT Gracious historic home on more than one acre along the Stillwater River, offering riverfront privacy, natural beauty and convenient access to Old Town, Orono and the University of Maine. Built in 1830 by Ormil Rogers, this original farmhouse is believed to be the oldest surviving home in Old Town. Christened "Bonny Hold" by Edith Patch, whose historic home is nearby, it was owned by University of Maine faculty through the 20th century and has remained in one family for the past 60 years. Lovingly cared for and restored, with meticulous maintenance records. The first floor features a formal front entrance, side mudroom entry and separate kitchen entrance opening to the garden, along with a formal dining room and parlor, sunlit library, spacious family room and three-season porch overlooking the river. Original hardwood floors, doors, trim, mantels, built-in bookcases and closets remain, along with working fireplaces and wood stoves. Four bedrooms are upstairs, with full modern baths on both floors and flexible space for an office, studio or playroom. Steam heat is provided by a newer furnace. Additional features include attic storage, a large basement with workshop space and original cold cellar, two laundry areas, detached garage, pull-through driveway and a 2025 security system. Enjoy private river access for boating, swimming, and a view across the water to a small island with an active bald eagle nest and abundant wildlife. Established flower gardens and a hand-laid riverview stone patio complement the grounds. Direct access to more than 2,000 acres of University-owned farmland and forest and the University bike trail system. Canoe to the island for wild blueberries in summer and walk across the street to forested ski trails in the winter. Approximately 3 minutes to Orono and 20 minutes to Bangor.
