Take the scenic route to your dream home in this beautiful modern log cabin set on a whimsical 5.31-acre forested property. Only 20 minutes from Kingfield or Farmington, and less than 40 to Rangeley- you are right in the middle of Western Maine's mountains. Enjoy a spacious yard with a playground, raised beds, chicken coops, and farm animal runs. Apple trees and an abundance of wildflowers & medicinal plants enhance the natural beauty of the landscape. Sip your morning coffee on the expansive front porch, serenaded by birds watching the butterflies fly by, or gaze at the Milky Way (and aurora borealis occasionally) at night listening to the peepers, loons, and owls. Less than 1,000 meters through the trees, the serene Porter Lake with those giant mountain views invites you for a quick 3-minute drive or a scenic 10-15 minute walk with the kids to it's beach and boat access. Inside, a beautiful open-concept home with a great layout opens up to a living room with vaulted ceilings and a new heat pump and cooling system. The dining room features a new custom hearth crafted from historic bricks found locally and adorned with a crescent selenite moon, complete with a Jøtul stove. All of the heavy lifting has been completed on the 10x16 (plus loft) structure that could be easily turned into a storage shed or Additional Dwelling Unit. Access to ATV and snowmobile trails, boat launch, hunting, fishing, and walking trails directly from the property make this house a great opportunity for a primary or secondary home.
