This custom built log cabin sits on a rare find of 24 acres of untouched beautiful land, filled with incredible development opportunities and options. This likely would be wildly popular as a summer rental. The all season house looks out over 400' bordering Leonards Lake where there are numerous ducks, geese, birds, deer, and wildlife in general. It truly is a hidden gem in the City of...The most peaceful spot in town but privately located off the Shore Road tucked away and nestled amongst nature. This custom built log cabin sits on a rare find of 24 acres of untouched beautiful land, filled with incredible development opportunities and options. This likely would be wildly popular as a summer rental. The all season house looks out over 400' bordering Leonards Lake where there are numerous ducks, geese, birds, deer, and wildlife in general. It truly is a hidden gem in the City of Ellsworth. The rustic log home, although it needs some repairs, updating and TLC, features a chimney which has hand made glazed tiles overlaid and a three season porch to finish as you like. It has a first floor laundry room and a two-car garage beneath the house for easy access. You could sit anywhere on the large deck and take in the Maine scenery.
