Escape to your serene estate on the finest lake in Northern Maine. With this property, you can have it all--Private waterfront beach, acreage, and a newer built home. Situated on a total of 44.75 acres the property includes the home, attached 2 car garage, detached garage with workshop and storage attic, and trails, roads, a freshwater spring and two gravel pits. The property sits on both sides of Baie Creuse Road, 3.5 acres on the water and 41 on the adjacent property. Self sustainability is the ethos, with means to heat and supply water without electricity. Every system has a backup plan such as the generator hookup and outdoor wood boiler. Despite all its ruggedness, the home itself maintains a classic elegance. Gleaming hardwood floors set the stage, whether you enter from the mudroom, sunroom, or back porch. The sunroom is most aptly named, as the angle of the home allows the sun to trace a perfect arc over it all year. The West end is anchored by the two story turret whose windows are bathed in natural light. Each floor of the home features a full bathroom, and the first floor has the main living room along with a cozy den. The finished utility room houses the first floor laundry, and is one of two accessways to the immaculate crawlspace below the home. Follow the wrought iron and wood staircase to the second level, and you'll find the three bedrooms. The Master is stunning, with the vaulted ceiling and direct view of the Cove. A large walk in closet and dresser nook keeps the room tidy and open. Nearby is the other full bath with soaking tub and separate shower. Beyond the two other bedrooms is the Great Room, which sits above the garage. Host easily with its own exterior staircase. Back outside, you'll discover the lakeside gardens and lush grounds. The detached garage sits between the home and the road, and is also heated. Steps away is your additional acreage, waiting for you to hunt, work, or relax.
