262 Mitchell Brook Road, Temple, ME 04984
Tucked away in the peaceful hills of Temple, just 10 minutes from the conveniences of Farmington, lies a remarkable opportunity: 215 acres of unspoiled acres paired with a thoughtfully designed, 3,000 square foot custom home. This kingdom property offers privacy, serenity, and boundless potential for homesteading, recreation, or simply living immersed in nature.
The home, built in 2003, is set beside the gentle headwaters of Mitchell Brook. The land is rich with mature timber, dramatic topography, and ncludes a rocky outcrop on Derby Mountain offering distant, breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. Historic rock walls and a well-maintained internal trail system wind through the property, ideal for hiking, snowshoeing, or exploring on ATV and snowmobiles.
Inside the home, warmth and efficiency go hand-in-hand. Passive solar design with oversized, energy-efficient windows invite sunlight and stunning views into every room. A custom Russian Masonry Wood Heater system—designed for exceptional heat retention—keeps the home toasty through the coldest months, while a wood stove in the kitchen adds a charming and functional focal point. For added peace of mind, there's an oil furnace backup and a generator hook-up.
The home features three bedrooms and two full baths, including an oversized second-floor bath complete with a jetted tub & radiant floor heating. A large mudroom with washer, dryer, and ample storage is perfect for outdoor living. A three-season porch expands the living space. On the third floor, two bonus rooms offer flexibility.
Additional features include a two-car garage with a wood-heated workshop and an unfinished two-bedroom apartment above. A new sugar shack is ready for finishing. Gardening enthusiasts will appreciate the established vegetable beds, highbush blueberries, hops, and vibrant flowers. Wildlife abounds here—white-tailed deer, moose, bear, turkeys, and an array of birds call this land home.
