For Sale - The Estate of Local Portrait Artist Cecily Diamond Nestled on two hundred thirteen private acres in Belgrade, this extraordinary estate is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Maine artistry and history. Inspired by the renowned architect and author Scott Nearing, the three thousand three hundred twenty-nine-square-foot stone residence reflects the timeless craftsmanship found in many of Maine's iconic fieldstone homes. Constructed with impressive twelve-inch-thick walls built from fieldstone gathered directly from the land, the two-story home showcases custom post-and-beam construction and remarkable character throughout. Two magnificent fireplaces anchor the living spaces – one in the main living area and another on the upper level – creating warmth and charm in every season. During the nineteen seventies and nineteen eighties, the property operated as a family farm, home to Highland cattle and Great Pyrenees dogs. A spacious thirty by seventy barn offers excellent flexibility for livestock, farming operations, workshops, or storage. The grounds were once celebrated for their elaborate symmetrical gardens and mature fruit-bearing plantings, including pear trees, apple trees, grapevines, and a rare, thriving Arctic kiwi vine. While the gardens and orchards could benefit from restoration, their legacy and potential remain extraordinary. Whether envisioned as a private retreat, working farm, homestead, or creative sanctuary, this estate offers exceptional possibilities. The interior is ready for updates, and the second floor awaits completion; but the home's structure is solid, enduring, and full of authentic character. A one thousand two hundred foot driveway ensures complete privacy and seclusion while the absence of restrictions on Freedom Drive provides flexibility for future use. A truly distinctive Maine property with history, craftsmanship, and endless potential.
