The 2001 remodeled great room's design with vaulted ceiling, and upper loft bedroom, features a wall of windows floor to ceiling allowing views of the long lawn that gently slopes to Gardner Lake.

The heated second floor is 15.5 ft by 31 ft. It is a grand insulated, finished, flex space with an interior stair and exterior back stairs which could easily be used as guest space, a bedroom, or mini apartment. Imagine enjoying all the seasons, watching for Maine wildlife and listening for the call of loons. From your private beach you can fish, launch a boat, and swim. Plenty of waters to explore on Gardner's Lake which is 3,886 acres, and is filled with landlocked salmon, small mouth bass, perch, pickerel, and other species and it's just a short short drive to restaurants shops and all amenities. This warm and inviting home has all you need to settle in, including an on demand generator, and high speed internet which will keep you connected while you live/work/vacation in the woods. Welcome home.
