Overview

Description

185 Forest Lake Road is an idyllic waterfront retreat with excellent broad views over the Medomak River and waterfront on both the river and Forest Lake. Sited on a hill, the seasonal home offers aesthetically pleasing character with wood-paneled walls and ceilings, brick accents, and large windows that look over the property to the water. The open floor plan features a versatile farmhouse-style kitchen that is open to the living room / dining room and there is a wood stove, ideal for cool summer evenings or crisp fall mornings. A small den or office adds additional living space, while two full baths and a laundry room complete the main floor. On the second floor is a spacious landing area with built-ins and three comfortable bedrooms. The appealing grounds include expert stonework and perennial garden beds, with stairs accessing a pocket sand and pebble beach. Additionally, a moss-covered walking path leads to the private dock, ramp and float on 730± feet of river frontage and there are two deep-water moorings. The 6.5± acre property is divided by Forest Lake Road and there is 600± feet of frontage on Forest Lake, as well as another 850± feet of shoreline on Forest Lake Brook, which rambles pleasantly from Forest Lake to the Medomak River.
