334 River Road sits on 20 acres in Richmond, Maine-a working food forest homestead with woods on three sides and an open field rolling out behind it. The 1900s Cape has been updated but true to its original character. The first floor opens around exposed timber posts and a center beam, with a wood stove on a brick hearth anchoring the kitchen and dining space. The kitchen pairs a farmhouse sink and butcher-block island with shaker cabinets, and a mudroom entry and full-size laundry sit just off it. The bath is finished in slate-style tile with a clawfoot soaking tub. Upstairs are two bedrooms off a short hallway landing with storage to the side. Refinished hardwood runs through most rooms, and windows pull light in from every side. Outside, the grounds have been developed on permaculture principles, with gardens, fields, and orchards woven together. The gardens hold drought-tolerant pollinator plants; the fields, berry bushes; the orchards, apples and pears alongside lower companion plants. Two greenhouses are ready for seedlings or year-round growing, and deer fencing surrounds the orchard and growing areas on three sides. A mature asparagus patch sits between the house and the poultry pen. A walking path winds through two producing peach trees and the edible gardens, past the pole barn, to the wood-fired masonry oven and gathering benches. Beyond the fence, a field opens, lined with woods; follow the trail past young nut trees to a small brook near the back line. Land like this-already cleared, planted, and producing-is hard to find this close to town. Richmond sits on I-295, 20 minutes to Brunswick and a short drive to Gardiner, with the village, Kennebec River, and public boat landing just down the road. Whether you're growing your own food, working the gardens, or simply after room to breathe on real acreage with systems in place, this one rewards a walk through the gate.
