82 Lakeside DriveSaint Albans, ME 04971Price: $349,000

Just minutes from town yet privately tucked among the woods, this charming cottage offers both convenience and privacy. Fully insulated and solidly constructed with heavy beams on concrete Sono tubes, it is designed for more than just seasonal use. The lake-drawn water system is also fully insulated and heated. This could be your year-round home. Listen to the loons from a screened in porch that runs the entire width of the camp. During the cooler months put the removable clear vinyl panels over the screens and relax with a hot cup of coffee while taking in the sunrise over the water. The vaulted living room ceiling enhances the spacious open layout, while exposed wood beams and wood interiors create a cozy atmosphere. A half bath is conveniently located just off the kitchen and near the bedroom. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms are separated by an open loft that overlooks the living area below. Just off the porch, a separate building houses the combination laundry and bath. Storage is plentiful with both a 6-by-8-foot tool shed and a 12-by-20-foot reinforced canopy carport. Finished with vinyl siding and a metal roof, this easy-care property gives you more time to relax and enjoy the waterfront setting.
