Owned Land is a great starting point for this year-round home on Madawaska Lake! It is inexpensive living at the lake: taxes are under $1500 for 2021, year-round road access dues is $300/year. High Speed Internet is already here. Paved road. Propane furnace, Heat pump for heat & air conditioning, back-up generator! Now that those details are covered, how about the entire front of the cottage being a huge deck, 12 feet deep and a 2nd story deck that steps down to the main deck! The primary bedroom is on the 1st floor, offers a private sitting room overlooking the lake, and is en suite. It's mauve and we won't pretend it's new, but it offers everything you need and all the plumbing is in place, so you could easily update to your own style. The 2nd bedroom is very large and views both the oriental-style front garden as well as the lake. It's been used as a studio and currently a guest bedroom, up a half staircase & open to the living room (easily closed in, if you prefer). The 2nd floor, 3rd bedroom is so cool, everyone is going to fight for it! Because they hit ledge when adding this section on, they had to improvise with a raised platform bed to accommodate a full-ceiling height over the staircase. From the bed, you have a great view of the lake and it's from this bedroom that there is a private deck! The 1st floor also offers a 2nd full bath. The kitchen is open to the dining & living areas. A cozy propane stove is mesmerizing to watch and it's windows all across the front, to take in the lake views all year-long. Eagles have a nest across the lake - in fact it's the only thing (no camps!) across to mar your view of the sunsets. In fact, you can't see your side neighbors either. Currently leased, the camp is available to view July 11-15, July 23-Aug 6, and available for full occupancy on Sept. 1st Don't miss this affordably priced year-round lakefront home!
''North of Ordinary'' is a borrowed phrase but so applicable to this lovely year-round cottage. Built on . 67 owned acres, original in 1950, with 2 additions and many renovations late 80's-early 90's. Crafted to be concealed by the landscape, the entire focus of the interior is the 110 feet of lakefront. The kitchen/dining/living room is all one room. Many pleasurable dinner parties shifted from the cozy interior out to the huge lakeside deck to enjoy the sunsets. Working to meet LUPC lakeside guidelines always creates compromises, but the sellers have enjoyed 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. The remodeled interior exposes cathedral ceiling & beams over the central living area, creating a spacious feel. Every nook & cranny is well utilized for living & storage space. Designed for low maintenance, no grass on the lake side means no chemicals have been applied. It also means more boating/swimming time! Dry-stacked walls add character to the carefully planned landscape, paths meander thru the Zen gardens. A gentle path to the water leads to your own aluminum dock system. There is no HOA and only $300./year road dues which keeps it open year-round. The camp road is chip-sealed, so easy travel. Your ten minutes from Stockholm, which offers a tavern, post office, and grocery store - best 4th of July parades ever! If you want year-round, private lakeside living at a fair price then this is for you!
