About This Home

As of August 2019

Located on the shore of Shaker Pond in historic Alfred, Maine, this cozy three-bedroom seasonal cottage is situated on a level lot with about 150' of sandy frontage on the lake. Shaker Pond is so named after the first Shaker ''believers'' settled the area in 1783, and became an official community in 1793. The song, SIMPLE GIFTS was written in Alfred.
The cottage, built in 1975 has a large living room with free-standing wood stove, separate dining area, large kitchen, master bedroom and full bath on the first level, along with a bonus room and a 3-season porch, overlooking the lake. Upstairs are two more bedrooms. In addition, there is a large open deck and a side barn – great for storage! There is also an additional back lot for extra parking. Recent improvements include a newly shingled roof within the past year and an electric mini-split for heating and cooling. Ready for you to move in and enjoy the summer, as well as the spectacular foliage in the autumn.
