Looking for a waterfront home with a rare, grandfathered setting right at the shoreline that you cannot replicate today? The main home sits less than 15 feet from the water, an irreplaceable advantage that defines this legacy property. Come experience the best of Maine at this stunning 5-bedroom, 2 full bath contemporary home nestled on 3.5 surveyed acres with 336 feet of private shoreline on stunning East Pond. With 2,608 sq ft in the main home and an additional 600 sq ft in a separate finished ranch, this one-of-a-kind property offers unmatched flexibility for guests, rental income, or your creative retreat. Step inside to soaring cathedral ceilings, sun-drenched skylights, and a spacious layout perfect for entertaining or peaceful lakeside living. The main home features a large family room, an inviting living room with a dramatic stone fireplace, and a standing seam metal roof for lasting durability. Four bedrooms and a full bath are conveniently located on the first floor, while the second-floor great room and screened-in porch provide panoramic lake views and a peaceful escape. Just a few feet from the water's edge, the massive front deck invites you to relax and unwind in a quiet cove ideal for sandy-bottom swimming, sunset watching, and listening to loons call at dusk. Nature lovers will be in awe of the bald eagles, ospreys, and owls that frequently visit. Enjoy easy access to kayaking, paddleboarding, boating, and fishing--all from your own dock and ladder. The finished ranch-style guest house, built in 1984, adds over 600 sq ft of heated living space--ideal for Airbnb potential, extended stays, or a private home office or studio. Lovingly owned by the same family since 1939, the original camp was rebuilt in 1962, with the second floor added in 1994. This is more than a home--it's a legacy, a lifestyle, and a rare opportunity on one of Central Maine's most beloved lakes. Located just 20 minutes from the vibrant downtowns of Waterville and Augusta.
