4 Menatoma Camp Rd, Readfield, ME 04355

A striking Adirondack Cape style home that is part of the Lovejoy Pond Menatoma Association. This 4 bedroom home has the advantages of being part of the Association & sharing the 770' of shore frontage on Lovejoy Pond & the common buildings that were once part of the former boys' camp. This attractive home is near the entrance so has the plus of having Spectrum Internet & easy year-round access to Readfield & nearby towns. The open design of this home is welcoming w/ the high cathedral ceiling, cross beams & high windows blended with cedar v-match wood on the interior & bamboo floors. Although it has the character of a rustic Maine cabin it was built in 2010 & the home feels new. One of the favorite features is the open covered porches on the two sides; the back side has a built-in granite bistro table where the owners enjoy morning coffee. The first floor has 3 bedrooms & full bathroom. Upstairs is a bedroom & sitting area in the loft via the sturdy ladder. The 1.93 surveyed lot is open, flat & has great garden & play space. The owner loves to cook & the view from the kitchen is unobstructed. One may appreciate the granite counters & the extra wide one for food prep. The Menatoma community has 36+ aces with several common buildings that were once part of the camp: the former dining hall that can be used for private events, the library & craft buildings plus clay tennis court & ball fields. Lovejoy Pond is popular for fishing & boating. What makes Menatoma special is there is pond access from the boat launch & dock, but there is no public boat access to Lovejoy Pond so the pond is quiet. The Menatoma Association is very active & keeps the roads & grounds well maintained-annual fee is decided by all the members of the Association based on needs & improvements, running around $1,800/year. Home is 1 of 5 year-round homes in the Association w/ its own well & septic. A golf cart is a terrific way to get around. * The 2nd bath will be in the basement-finish date 9/6/21. *
