About this home
Nestled along the renowned Dennys River, this charming home offers 263 feet of private river frontage, where the soothing sounds of flowing water create a peaceful retreat. Relax on the spacious 25' x 6.5' front porch or the screened in separate covered BBQ area (15' x 13') and enjoy the shade of the towering trees while you watch the world go by. Inside, the home blends character and functionality with hardwood floors, a large living room, formal dining room, and a spacious eat-in kitchen with lots of handsome wood built-ins. The first floor also features a convenient laundry room, full bath, and a separate hobby room or office space. Upstairs, you'll find four comfortable bedrooms, each with its own closet. A large attached addition (20' x 15') provides abundant storage, complemented by a second covered entrance to the basement and additional storage space on both the first and second floors. The house also offers a full house Generac generator. This home can be both a year-round residence OR a terrific seasonal rental with direct lake access for recreation and boating right across the street. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the exceptional location. The Dennys River is a fisherman's paradise, known for Atlantic salmon, brook trout, and smallmouth bass. In the spring, bald eagles are a common sight as they gather to feed during the annual alewife migration from the ocean to inland spawning grounds. Adding even more value, the home is located directly across the street from the public boat launch on Meddybemps Lake. Enjoy easy access to one of Maine's most beautiful lakes for boating, kayaking, and fishing--without the expense of lakefront taxes. The active Meddybemps Lake Association and Meddybemps Lake Land Trust help preserve the lake fostering a strong sense of community, making this a wonderful place to live, relax, and explore the outdoors.
