Description
Nestled amidst the serene beauty of Upper Sysladobis Lake in Lakeville, Maine, this charming post and beam cottage offers a tranquil retreat on 38 acres of pristine woodland with 528 feet of shorefront featuring a picturesque sand beach. Perfectly blending rustic charm with modern comfort, this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath retreat is designed to embrace its natural surroundings and provide an inviting atmosphere for relaxation.
Upon entering the cottage, abundant natural light greets you, enhancing the open floor plan of the first floor which showcases breathtaking water views from every angle. The kitchen is a focal point, equipped with a unique combination wood and propane cook stove, complemented by tiled counters and oak trim that add a touch of warmth. Adjacent, the dining room overlooks the tranquil side yard, while the lakeside living room beckons with its expansive windows offering panoramic views of the lake.
Upstairs, accessed via a charming staircase, you'll find three cozy bedrooms, each adorned with skylights that invite natural light and starry night views. The master bedroom is a highlight with its cathedral ceilings and awe-inspiring lake vistas, providing a serene retreat within the home. A full bathroom on this level features a tiled shower, adding convenience and elegance to the upper floor.
Outside, a wrap-around screened porch invites outdoor gatherings and al fresco dining, spanning 10' x 40' along the side and 8' x 23' on the lakeside. This idyllic spot is perfect for enjoying sunsets over the water or simply listening to the sounds of nature. Additionally, an outdoor fireplace enhances the ambiance, offering warmth on cooler evenings and a cozy gathering place under the stars.
Despite its off-grid status, the cottage offers modern conveniences including a generator for uninterrupted power supply, ensuring comfort without sacrificing the tranquility of its private wooded setting.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is very small town, who you know/who you are. They let the children from families that are popular, work within school or from money get away with anything, while the others struggle. Safety is not a concern, children have knives on the bus, fist fights regularly, excessive bullying. You are better off not sending youe child to school at all than sending them here.Parent Review2y ago - Mattanawcook Academy
