About this home
Welcome to your private waterfront retreat on Evans Pond--where craftsmanship, nature, and lifestyle come together. From the moment you step through the front door of this handsome, dormered Cape-Cod style home, you're greeted with a breathtaking sightline straight through the home to beautifully landscaped, park-like grounds and peaceful water views. It's the kind of first impression that never gets old. The kitchen is warm and inviting, featuring a soaring cathedral ceiling with natural pine and skylights that flood the space with light. It's perfectly designed for slow mornings or hosting unforgettable gatherings. The main living area also offers a screened porch, and a spacious great room with a sunken sunroom, built-in shelving, and a wood stove hookup--ideal for cozy Maine evenings. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms, all with water views, including an oversized 325 sq ft primary suite with dual closets--your own quiet escape overlooking the pond. Outside, the possibilities expand even further, including: An oversized garage with room for two vehicles; Heated woodworking shop with its own bathroom; Two horse stalls with access to paddocks; Bonus space above the garage ready to become an in-law suite (subject to town approval and septic expansion); and a finished, heated bunkhouse with storage. Whether you're looking for a year-round home, a home for you and your horses, or waterfront getaway, this one offers a rare combination of privacy, versatility, and lifestyle.
