Property Description

The approach sets the tone. A half-mile private road winds through the woods, climbs to a hilltop, and opens onto something you don't find by accident. This 1890 New Englander sits on just over 30 acres in Maine's Belgrade Lakes Region: a 6-bedroom, 3.5-bath estate with 3 wood-burning fireplaces, hardwood floors, and construction quality that age only confirms. This has been a genuine family compound for decades, and it shows.Inside, wide archways connect the rooms so the first floor breathes as one. The kitchen is the center of it all, flanked by formal and informal living spaces built for gathering. A walk-in pantry, 1st-floor laundry, 2-car garage with direct entry, and a whole-house automatic generator round out the practical side. The primary suite offers a soaking tub, double vanity, and walk-in closet. Two living rooms, a library, a warm wood-paneled den, and 12 rooms total across 3 levels ensure space for everyone. The finished walkout lower level adds a spacious family room, a private office with a brick fireplace, and a bedroom with a full bath.Outside, the land earns its keep. A 2-story timber-frame barn with original hand-hewn beams raised 125 years ago has been professionally restored and lifted onto 10x10 supports built to stand another century. Deep in the woods, a 20x20 cabin awaits with its own screened porch and loft. Grounds feature apple and pear trees, berry bushes, a heated pool, and a hot tub. At night, without light pollution, the sky holds more stars than most have seen in years.Walk to Belgrade Lakes Village, Great Pond, the marina, and an award-winning golf course. Perfectly located midway between Augusta and Waterville. An adjacent carriage house is available separately. A complete pre-inspection report is available for qualified buyers.Some places you move into. Some you belong to. This is the second kind.
