About this home

Set on the crystal-clear shores of West Grand Lake in the storied village of Grand Lake Stream, Maine, this remarkable log home is a legacy property that embodies the rarest balance of warmth and wilderness. Built in 1980, this year-round residence reflects the timeless artistry of true Maine architecture — with hand-hewn logs, soaring cathedral ceilings, and hardwood floors throughout. Expansive windows frame epic, panoramic views of one of Maine's most coveted and least accessible lakes. This exceptional property has been lovingly cared for by only two owners since its construction, a testament to its enduring quality and timeless appeal. At the heart of the home, a grand granite & field stone fireplace anchors the great room — a masterpiece of natural stone and warmth that defines the space. The open-concept living and dining areas flow effortlessly together, perfect for entertaining or intimate evenings by the fire. Designed for easy, single-floor living, the main level offers two serene bedrooms and two and a half bath. Above, a spacious loft overlooks the great room below. Beyond the home lies the true treasure...the unmatched natural setting of West Grand Lake. One of Maine's largest and most pristine bodies of water, it spans over 14,000 acres with endless coves and islands waiting to be explored. The surrounding lands are permanently protected by the Downeast Lakes Land Trust, which has conserved more than 370,000 acres of forests, waters, and wildlife habitat across the region. This vast conservation ensures that the lake's breathtaking views will remain forever wild and untouched. The village of Grand Lake Stream is steeped in Maine's sporting heritage, celebrated for world-class fly fishing, kayaking, hiking, and unspoiled tranquility. Opportunities to own property on West Grand Lake are exceedingly rare. An additional lot and private island with a cabin could be available for purchase....offering a rare opportunity!
