About This Home

12956 - Tucked away in a private cove on Pleasant Lake in Stetson, this dreamy year-round cottage is pure Maine magic! Whether you're seeking a peaceful getaway or a cozy home to enjoy all four seasons, this gem has it all. Step inside to find an updated kitchen and tile floors, with rustic charm throughout—hello exposed beams and tongue-and-groove loft! The floor-to-ceiling tiled shower with a steam feature brings spa vibes right to your bathroom. A wood-burning fireplace adds the perfect touch of warmth for chilly nights, and the first-floor laundry and bath offer total convenience. Outside, the fun really begins! A 3-season porch and back deck overlook the lake, with a hot tub ready for starry night soaks. Plus the dock is included! The built-in bed upstairs is perfect for cozying up, and the garage gives you room for all your gear and toys. With large front and back yards, there's plenty of space to entertain, relax, or launch your next lake day. Just 10 minutes to I-95 and Newport for shopping and daily essentials, and only 20 minutes to Bangor for restaurants, concerts, and city convenience. This is more than a home—it's a lifestyle. Don't miss your chance to own this waterfront treasure!
