About This Home

As of May 2025

Nestled at the end of a private cul-de-sac in the desirable Powder Ridge neighborhood, this classic Maine log home offers a tranquil retreat with breathtaking views. Enjoy direct sightlines of five of Sunday River's eight majestic peaks—a panorama visible from the heated in-ground pool and hot tub, the spacious great room, the dining area, and all four bedrooms. The home's cozy ambiance is enhanced by a wood-burning fireplace and a gas fireplace, perfect for warming up after a day on the slopes. Soaring cathedral ceilings and walls of glass showcase breathtaking mountain views, while radiant concrete floors add warmth. The massive great room, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, seamlessly flows into the well-appointed kitchen, which features a chef's gas range and provides ample space for culinary creations and entertaining. A spacious deck with a covered gazebo provides the perfect setting for relaxing in the hot tub, and the heated pool, surrounded by decking, makes swimming and relaxing a three-season enjoyment. The first-floor primary suite boasts a second fireplace, a luxurious private bath with a custom stone shower and soaking tub, and, of course, those incredible views. Upstairs, two ensuite bedrooms and a second living area provide privacy and space for guests. The lower level features a pub area with a wet bar and pool table, a gaming area, a family room with a woodstove, two additional bedrooms, and a bath. A breezeway connects the house to the three-bay garage, offering ample storage. One bay is dedicated to ATV, snowmobile, or bike storage, another to vehicle parking, and the third has been transformed into a home theater. All of the furnishings are included in the sale. This property offers a unique opportunity to experience the quintessential Maine lifestyle, combining rustic charm and unparalleled mountain views.
