18 Belgrade Road, Oakland, ME, 04963

A beautiful spot with southerly views of Messalonskee Lake allowing you to experience all that lake life offers and catch the sunsets! Surveyed distance along the CMP-owned sliver of shoreline is 142.9 feet. A unique opportunity to live along the shore of Messalonskee Lake without paying shorefront taxes! CMP owns a sliver of land along the waterfront on this, neighboring properties, and across the way, thus the view across the lake is unlikely to change. This home enjoys all the benefits of lakefront, with a dock, swimming, fishing, kayaking, as well as perks of in-town living with public sewer and water, close to shopping, restaurants, I-95, golf courses, and schools including Colby College. Messalonskee Lake is part of the Belgrade Lakes Region and is over 8 miles long with 30 miles of shore, abundant wildlife including herons, loons, eagles, turtles, and for the fishermen - bass, perch, trout, salmon, pike and pickerel. This home is comprised of three separate living apartments so there is plenty of room for friends and family to visit and enjoy the lake! The main apartment unit has three bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, two living areas, kitchen, and a dining/sitting room. Apartment #1 is on the second floor, with its own exterior stairway and balcony. It has a living/dining room, kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, and laundry room. Apartment #2 also has its own balcony, dining room, kitchen, living room, bathroom, and bedroom. A large deck off the attached carriage house overlooks the lake and is the perfect place to sit for coffee in the morning or watching the sunset in the afternoon. You'll see pairs of nesting loons and eagles who call this part of the lake their home! Established garden areas include roses, Japanese lanterns and raspberries, as well as a vegetable garden. The lake flows to the nearby dam causing a gentle current that keeps the water clean and does not freeze in the winter. The dock is left in the water year !'round!
