Iconic camp setting on perhaps the most enticing lot on beloved Molasses Pond offers much of what Maine lake living promises. Recent home & septic inspection reports available. The 1.39 acre lot is surrounded by towering pines and owns the entirety of a point, granting long views down the breadth of the pond. 340' of owned frontage includes two beautiful sand beaches, a boat launch area, frontage on Molasses Pond Stream & direct access to the unique setting of the MoPo dam. Swimming, fishing, boating. .. all of it can be done with ease from the shore here, which sports a shoreside sunning platform, dock and two moorings. Being both at the quieter southern end of the pond and within a sheltered cove keeps boating traffic to a minimum. One of the granite boulders that speckles the shoreline is large enough to lounge on or be that perfect fishing perch. An 'end of the road' location provides both a sense of privacy & seclusion, while also fully being a part of the lovely 'Cove' neighborhood, a true example of why camp living in Maine is so special. The humble, yet well loved 500 sq. ft. , three season camp offers a kitchen, dining area, living room, full bath, bedroom & a small sleeping loft. New soils work done for potential new home in rear of lot. A 30% footprint expansion of the existing camp is possible. While modest in living space, the views from inside are anything but with the pond in full focus from most rooms. Step out to the deck and the 220+ degree, elevated water views come into full glory. To host everyone who will want to come visit you, the bunkhouse (with power), well crafted outdoor dining area, outdoor shower & laundry and pondside campfire pit are essential. An additional storage building helps to stash the needs for life on the pond. The property is supported by a modern septic system (inspected) and draws water from the pond with a newer pump & pressure tank. Plenty of parking is on site, as is Fidium internet access. Conveys mostly furnished.
