About This Home

As of September 2025

Attention sportsmen, offered for the first time, this beautifully crafted post-and-beam lodge offers the perfect balance of rustic charm and modern comfort—ideal for year-round living, peaceful getaways, or working remotely in a serene setting. Tucked among tranquil woods, this custom-built home is a haven of calm, privacy, and natural beauty—just under an hour from Sugarloaf USA and a short drive to Fahi Pond's public boat launch. The spacious home features an open-concept layout bathed in natural light, with warm tongue-and-groove pine finishes and unique live-edge pine kitchen cabinetry. A generous kitchen island and an oversized pantry with built-ins provide excellent space for everyday living and entertaining, while the cozy propane fireplace in the living room sets the tone for relaxing evenings. The first-floor primary suite includes a private bath, and the main bath is equipped with laundry, a heater, and a full water filtration system for added comfort and convenience. A flexible loft space offers a private guest area or an ideal spot for a home office or creative studio, complete with a walk-in closet. A large, insulated mudroom leads to a heated garage, perfect for protecting your vehicles or converting into a workshop or hobby space. For those looking for even more potential, the detached garage/barn features unfinished insulated living quarters above with a private entrance and deck—ideal for a guest suite, rental opportunity, or multi-generational living. Imagine leaving all your snowmobiles and four wheelers locked in the garage without trailering them. Designed with efficiency and comfort in mind, this home includes spray foam insulation, a fresh air exchange system, six individual propane Rinnai heaters, and a whole-house Kohler on-demand generator—ensuring year-round peace of mind. Additional highlights include an RV power hookup area, a charming 'She Shed' with electricity, and much more.
