About This Home

As of January 2021

Waterfront year-round living or a magnificent summer and weekend get-away. Built in 1998 on a private setting in a wonderful waterfront community on pristine Torsey Pond in Readfield where the fishing is great, and the relaxation is even better. Featuring 3-4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, newer cherry kitchen with blue pearl granite counters, stainless appliances, vaulted ceilings in the dining and living rooms, hardwood floors, full finished basement, and a propane stove in the living room to take the chill off. Virtually maintenance free with vinyl siding, standing seam metal roof and paved drive. Enjoy the sandy swimming area, open water views, spectacular sunsets, and beautiful perennial and granite stone gardens. This could be the perfect place to rest and unwind where boating, kayaking, paddle boarding and fishing is welcome but personal watercraft (jet-skis) are not. Augusta is less than 30 minutes away, Sugarloaf and Sunday River is 1.5 hours and Boston is 3 hours.
