Set on three lots with an impressive 225 feet of waterfront on the widest part of Mousam Lake, this special property offers privacy, beautiful western-facing views, and the quintessential Maine lake lifestyle.
The charming cottage features three bedrooms, including a first-floor bedroom, along with an inviting open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area centered around a cozy fireplace. Step through the living room onto the spacious deck overlooking the lake--a perfect spot for morning coffee or relaxing while taking in the peaceful surroundings.

Adding to the property's character is an original carriage house, complete with its old wood floors and exposed beams. Full of history and potential, it could become a studio, workshop, guest space, or simply remain a charming reminder of the property's past.
