First time on the market. Secluded year-round log home with 14 acres and 500 feet on Torsey Pond. Feel the remoteness of Maine yet only minutes to Augusta and Winthrop. Enjoy the tranquility of the woods and open space and explore the pond's 679 acres and 15 miles of shoreline – much of it undeveloped. The house has a fully enclosed porch, open interior with cathedral ceilings, 3 bedrooms & 2 full bathrooms. Full basement for storage and garage door for gear and equipment that lakefront living requires. The property is mostly wooded so you can create your own trails, recreation area or begin a family retreat. This is such a great place to relax, boat, paddle, fish, sail, snowmobile and ice fish. Torsey Pond is a conservation water that part of its shoreline in a conservation trust and only one of the few area bodies of water that prohibits jet-skis.
