Serenity. Waterfront in the Northwoods of Maine. Privacy, yet quick access to amenities. Your well built four season craftsman house perched on the banks of the West Branch of the Penobscot River can be your place of peace, and it awaits your sense of adventure with a private dock with recreational water access for canoeing, paddle boarding and swimming. Fantastic bass fishing from your boat or off your own dock. Or put your boat in in town and float home! Almost every corner of this custom built, post & beam craftsman style home offers views of the river without another soul in sight. A rustic, functional charm emanate from the 3 bedrooms, 2 offices/ bonus rooms and an open kitchen/dining floorplan, and hardwood floors. Lots of room for a big group or many guests! Located just 30 minutes from Baxter State Park and the new Katadhin Woods and Waters National Monument and 10 minutes from miles of groomed snowmobile and ski trails. In the summer and fall you are equally close to ATV and mountain bike trails. This beautiful home gives you access to world class, year round recreation opportunities in the Katadhin region. Beautiful details throughout the house including an oversized living/ entertaining room with cathedral ceilings and views of the river right off the kitchen. Primary suite with walk in closet, bathroom and private loft with oversized windows looking south over the river. Open kitchen dining area, room for a home office, spacious private yard! While the location feels quiet and serene, you are less than 10 minutes to groceries, gas and basic amenities. Don't miss this gorgeous waterfront house!
