Experience the serenity of lakeside living in this pristine cottage on the sought-after Phillips Lake! This special listing comes with four parcels offering an opportunity to build an additional home, garage or just have the extra acreage to enjoy! From the stone patio, guests enter through a large mudroom/laundry room with extra storage for seasonal wear, ideal for coming right from the lake! The sunny eat-in kitchen opens to a quaint dining area and a spacious living room with a stunning wood burning stone fireplace. You won't feel like you are at camp when you see the updated full bathroom! Two generous bedrooms and a loft give you room to spread out and sunroom located in the front of the home will be your dream place to enjoy a morning coffee. Water is accessed down two sets of wood stairs and a footpath with 70 ft of waterfrontage. Large shed kitty-corner from home provides storage for your canoes, kayaks, and outdoor hobbies! Road is plowed year-round and with forced hot air oil heating, one could enjoy this home in all seasons. Let life's stresses slip away while being 20 min. to Downtown Bangor, Ellsworth & quick commute to UMaine & EMMC.
