This 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath home offers a rare opportunity to invest in a year round classic Maine cottage on extraordinary Big Sebago Lake. The property offers more privacy than the typical lake home, being located near the end of a private road. For boating enthusiasts, there is over 200 feet of deep water canal frontage with Floe aluminum docking ready for your boat. Dock your boat in the protection of the canal right by the house and be on the big lake within seconds. Or if you prefer to moor the boat in the harbor, there are mooring rights in Snug Harbor included with ownership. The property comes with deeded part ownership of a private beach; Sandy Beach, just steps from the home. As a highlight of outdoor living, this cottage provides a wrap around deck to relax and watch the teeming wildlife that lives in the canal. The charming pine interior and Hearthstone glass door wood stove are hallmark features of this timeless Maine cottage. Upon entry you can't help but notice the grand floor to ceiling windows spanning the entire back wall of the cottage that lends to a bright and airy feel throughout. You can experience the same panoramic views of the canal that you have on the deck right from your sitting room! There is potential for customizing the cottage into your dream home with the open concept living. This home on the sizeable 0.69 ace lot is in a quiet neighborhood and is a must see!
