If you've been dreaming of a quiet, private escape in Maine, away from the noise and hustle, 317 Pug Lakes Road in Lakeville may be exactly what you've been searching for. Set on the shores of pristine Upper Pug Lake, this off-grid lakefront cabin sits on 12.8± acres of gently rolling land with nearly 500 feet of private lake frontage. With just over 100 year-round residents, Lakeville is a true hidden gem in far eastern Maine, known for its countless lakes, towering pines, and scenic ridgelines. Whether you're looking for a seasonal retreat or a three- to four-season getaway, this property offers the perfect balance of privacy, nature, and comfort. The 1,396± square foot cabin, built in 2004, is both rustic and remarkably well-equipped for off-grid living. Beautiful cedar T & G lines the interior finish giving that log cabin feel without the log cabin maintenance. Featuring two bedrooms, one and a half baths, and a cozy porch, this cabin has everything you need to relax and unwind. It's heated with a direct vent LP gas system and offers hot water through an on-demand tankless water heater. The power system is a Bluetti portable battery unit, which can be recharged via generator or solar panels, giving you both flexibility and peace of mind. The cabin is being sold furnished with just a few exclusions, so you can settle in with ease. The land surrounding the cabin is a mix of mature and younger growth forest, with the home site cleared right to the water's edge. From the dock, take in beautiful views of the 50-acre Upper Pug Lake, a quiet lake ideal for paddling, swimming, and fishing for smallmouth bass, perch, and chain pickerel—perfect for beginner anglers or seasoned fishers alike. A couple of well-kept sheds provide ample storage for tools and gear, and there's already a well and septic in place for convenience. Beyond your own waterfront paradise, you'll enjoy access to additional lakes including Lombard, Lower Pug, and Upper Sysladobsis.
