About this home
Discover an extraordinary property in the NEK, where Hancock Pond serves as your stunning front yard. This tranquil retreat offers a clear water view, with no neighboring camps in sight, allowing you to fully enjoy the natural beauty and diverse wildlife. Built in 2003, the log home exudes rustic charm with 1,328 sq ft of elegantly finished living space. The main level showcases an open layout highlighted by cathedral ceiling in the living and dining areas, and an abundance of windows ensures the pond view is visible from nearly every seat. The kitchen is well-appointed with cherry cabinets and a central island that accommodates four or more guests. A convenient three-quarter bath with laundry facilities is also on this level. Upstairs, you’ll find a spacious sleeping loft and cozy secondary bedroom. The full concrete walk-out basement provides ample storage for outdoor gear, lawn tools, and more. When not fishing or paddling on the pond, you can relax on the inviting wrap-around covered porch. The property is conveniently located just 5 miles from the heart of Island Pond, where you can stock up on groceries, savor a delightful meal, and engage in various community events. A mere 20-minute drive in the opposite direction leads you to the village of East Burke, home to Kingdom Trails and Burke Mountain, offering a wealth of outdoor recreational activities. Seize the opportunity to make this distinctive property your own! * Tax bill states 20A, while tax map indicates 10.29A *
