Key Facts
Description
This quintessential log style lakefront home sits just steps from the water on beautiful Merrymeeting Lake, a crystal clear, spring fed, 1,233 acre lake tucked away between mountains and forest. With just 3 owners so far there is some really rich history here for this 1948 cottage. 100 feet of waterfront on the .26 acre waterfront lot, and includes the gently sloped .34 acre back lot. Expansive family room with fireplace and large screened porch, galley kitchen and bathroom downstairs, 2 bedrooms upstairs. Shared well, chimney needs work. New septic design is currently in process to convey with sale. Priced to bring buyer enthusiasm, and well under assessed value! No trespassing please, assisted showings only. No open house scheduled at this time so schedule your showing today. Likely to need cash buyer.
