Highland Lake doesn't close for the winter. Swim and paddle in July, skate and ice fish in January! At 15 Orchard Rd the lake is yours by deeded right, a short walk down the road. No launch fees, no hunting for parking, no waterfront tax bill. Just a towel, or a sled, and five minutes. The property was originally three lots, so there's room here most homes in this neighborhood don't have — garden, play, park the boat, spread out. Inside: hardwood floors and a kitchen freshly updated with new counters, backsplash, sink, and faucet. Woodstoves in both the kitchen and living room, plus a fireplace and multiple heat sources, so Maine winters are something to enjoy rather than endure. A first-floor bedroom keeps daily life easy, and several additional rooms flex into an office, hobby space, or a landing spot for guests. Septic is designed for three bedrooms; town records currently list the property as a 2-bedroom. Out back, a large shed handles storage with room left for a workbench. Easy commute to Portland. Four seasons of lake living, and a house that's warm through all of them.
