Enjoy one-level living in a private, nature-lover's location! This spacious executive ranch centers around a gorgeous great room, where living and dining areas share an open, airy space that turns its windows south toward the wild marsh. This custom-designed ranch provides a luxurious layout. At one end of the home, a primary suite enjoys a big view of the backyard, and sliders to the deck for stargazing and sunrises. The large en-suite bath here features a double vanity, a spa tub, and a shower. At the other end of the home, two more sunny, south-facing bedrooms share a second full bath. Bright wood flooring sweeps through the home. The entire south side of the home hosts a wide deck, where you can relax and watch the passing wildlife without another house in sight. And on the north side of the home, an insulated two-car garage offers tons of storage, and shelter from the storms. Maybe the best-kept secret in this house is the basement. Here is a tremendous bonus of dry, comfortable space. Some areas are semi-finished and heated; some are set up for premium storage. Three parallel heating systems -- heat pumps, wood stove, and boiler -- give you control over the unpredictable fuel market--along with air conditioning in the summer! A generator hook-up is in place to help you weather whatever Mother Nature might bring. Central vac and dual oil tanks are among the additional perks. Outdoors, the neighboring conservation area protects Mill Brook, a haven for birds and other wildlife. From your fenced backyard, you can slip a kayak into the brook and explore the marsh for hours. A large fenced area keeps pets and other little explorers safe. Another benefit to this location? Old Orchard has one of the lowest tax rates in the area! Ten minutes to the Turnpike; 20 minutes to Portland; but 9 Ross Road feels like your own sunny clearing in the forest. *Listed under a recent appraisal price!* *Showings start 12/12/25!*
