About This Home

As of July 2025

Enjoy this beautiful Great Pond property with impeccable attention to detail, and with the most expansive view on the entire lake! With 445 feet of waterfront on 2.79 acres, this fabulously decorated home features a separate guest house, a separate bunk house, a boat house, and an oversized garage for all your needs. At the end of a private road, this special place is a rare find. Entertaining is a breeze with nice indoor and outdoor space and awnings to use as you wish rain or shine. Bring the entire family and all your guests to enjoy the lake with it's sandy bottom and easy access waterfront. The custom built main house is insulated and heated for year round living with several built-ins for clever storage throughout the house. The guest house is bright and sunny with a full kitchen, bedroom and a full bath. It also has a separate dock system. The charming bunk house has a full bath and is ready for use! Both dock systems offer expansive views of Great Pond where you can have your mail delivered by boat right to your dock. 2 new septic fields were installed in 2022. The garage has a tool shop and attached laundry room with an additional refrigerator. The perfect getaway, just minutes from Belgrade Lakes Village, where you can travel by boat to award winning eateries and entertainment. Take the kids for an ice cream or dinner at one of the many open establishments or concerts at the town park in the summer! Also near one of Maine's best golf clubs and several hiking trails in the Maine Highlands. Explore the many coves and see interesting wildlife on the lake - swimming, boating, kayaking, paddleboarding or ice skating in the winter. Join the Great Pond Yacht Club who welcomes all people who sail or want to learn. Conveniently located near Augusta, Waterville, or Farmington. Create memories at this beautiful property! A must see!
