Step Back in Time with Modern Comforts: Historic 1820s Farmhouse on Wade Pond

Welcome to our beautifully updated 1820s farmhouse, a hidden gem and birdwatchers` dream nestled between the picturesque Adams and Wade Ponds. This historic home initially belonging to the prominent Boothbay Adams family is now available for you to experience its timeless charm. Surrounded by meadows and conservation land, our home offers breathtaking views of nearly private Wade Pond—a place so serene you may never want to leave.

A Blend of Vintage Charm and Modern Comforts:

Our five-bedroom, three-bathroom home has retained much of its vintage charm while embracing modern amenities. The farmhouse offers two cozy bedrooms with king beds, a third bedroom with twin bunk beds, and a spacious loft with a queen bed, two twin beds, a downstairs bedroom with a twin bed, and a comfy seating area with a TV. For your little ones, we have provided a pack `n play, highchair, toys, books, and more.

After a day of exploring, unwind in the 1st floor den complete with a 75” smart TV - perfect for family movie nights or catching up on your favorite shows. The fully stocked, newly renovated eat-in kitchen makes meal prep a breeze, whether you’re whipping up a gourmet dinner or simply enjoying a cup of coffee as you take in the pond views. Want to dine al fresco? Fire up the propane grill on the large back deck, which also doubles as a second lounge area to soak in the stunning scenery.

Endless Outdoor Adventures:

The front yard has a flat grassy area perfect for lawn games, while the outdoor fire pit in the back invites you to extend your evening under the stars. For water enthusiasts, we provide a kayak and canoe to explore Wade Pond right from your backyard or the pristine Adams Pond just across the street.

Explore the Best of the Boothbay Region:

While our home offers a peaceful retreat, adventure awaits just minutes away. Boothbay Harbor with shopping, dining, and sailing is 6 minutes away. Hiking and kayaking options abound in all directions, a canoe and life jackets are available for your enjoyment. Take a 15-minute drive to Hendricks Head Beach for a dip in the ocean, or head to Knickerbocker Lake, just 5 minutes away, for a freshwater swim. The renowned Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens are also nearby, where you can enjoy stunning scenery and marvel at the whimsical giant trolls hidden in the landscape.

After a day of fun, take a 10-minute stroll down to the Boothbay Tavern for craft beer and delicious food, or stay at home to relax and recharge for your next adventure.

Fun for all

What a wonderful property! Everyone in our group (ages 6-81) thoroughly enjoyed their stay. A bathroom on every floor was so helpful. Very well-appointed with just about everything we needed. Location was perfect for us. Hope to make it back and stay again.
