About this home

Experience the best of Maine waterfront living with this beautifully reimagined retreat on Worthley Pond! Boasting an impressive 230 feet of owned waterfront on 0.38 acres, this stunning 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home has been completely renovated from the studs out, combining the timeless charm of a traditional Maine camp with modern comfort, quality craftsmanship, and thoughtful design. Step inside and discover a warm, inviting interior showcasing gorgeous hand-scraped hickory flooring, tongue-and-groove ceilings, and crisp white nickel-gap finishes. The stunning new kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring rich rustic alder cabinetry, granite countertops, and a gourmet propane range, creating the perfect space for entertaining or gathering after a day on the lake. The waterfront-facing primary suite offers a peaceful private escape, complete with beautiful views of Worthley Pond and the surrounding mountains. This thoughtfully designed retreat features its own private bathroom and a spacious walk-in closet with built-in organizers, providing exceptional comfort, storage, and functionality. The extensive renovation goes far beyond cosmetics, with all-new electrical wiring, plumbing, insulation, vinyl siding with aluminum skirting, a new propane hot water heater, and an efficient heat pump heating system with multiple wall-mounted heads throughout the home. Outdoor living is equally impressive! A spacious deck overlooking the water provides the perfect setting for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or relaxing while taking in the spectacular lake and mountain scenery. Along the property's 230 feet of owned shoreline, you'll find a sandy swimming area ideal for enjoying warm summer days, along with stair access to the waterfront offering an opportunity for a future dock. Beautifully renovated with exceptional craftsmanship and stunning waterfront views, 5 Short Street offers the perfect Maine retreat for making lasting memories!
