This remarkable, private six acre property with 400 feet of rocky Bagaduce River frontage, has extensive unobstructed western facing water views with magnificent sunsets! Perched above the water's edge is a dramatic architect designed home that was built by Prin Allen & Sons of Brooklin, ME. Although mostly used during 3 seasons, this home was built using specs for a year-round residence and is a perfect example of untouched 1970's design at its finest. With a primary bedroom, en suite bath, second bedroom and hall bath on the main level, the house has a distinctive open plan that maximizes elevated views. A large water-facing deck, screened-in porch, gangway and float allow for outdoor eating and entertainment. This exceptional property has been continuously occupied and lovingly maintained and respected by the same family since the land was purchased in the mid '70s. Children grew up spending summer vacations kayaking to Youngs Island and Bagaduce Lunch, playing tennis on the private court and then jumping in the river or swimming pool and warming up in the hot tub and sauna. This home also features a lap pool and tennis court, both of which have not been used in a while but are itching to come back to life! A short walk away, also with outstanding water views, is a sweet cottage with a full bath and large kitchen that can sleep four. Come see and experience this true treasure on The Bagaduce.
