Welcome to this enchanting 1830s Colonial home in the heart of West Topsham Village. Historically the town inn, this beautifully maintained residence now thrives as the "Rest Haven AirBnB," providing income and the joy of meeting new friends. The AirBnB space spans 1,200 square feet with three bedrooms and two separate rental areas, each featuring a refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, and private bathroom. Guests also have access to the downstairs cafe and gift shop, a cozy three-season enclosed porch, and a common living room. Nestled on an 8.9-acre site, the property includes an adjacent large post and beam barn, perfect for storage or potential expansion. Terraced trails lead through wooded and open areas, boasting approximately 1,100 feet of frontage along the picturesque Waits River, ideal for fishing, swimming, and camping. The property also offers opportunities for hiking, cross-country skiing, and easy access to nearby snowmobile and 4-wheeler trails. The residence provides generous space to move about without losing its cozy atmosphere. Relax on the three-season porch with a book and a hot beverage or glass of wine.
