Don't miss out on this amazing and rare opportunity to own this fully furnished, tastefully unique, four-season home on highly sought after Bickford Pond in beautiful Porter, Maine. This property was purchased in 1997 and completely rebuilt in 1998. Since then, this two-bed cottage with extra sleeping space has been meticulously maintained and updated. Pictures help, but you'll need to see to believe the amazing attention to detail the exceptional builder put into the building of your to-be forever getaway. Highlights include oak floors and cabinetry, local stone-built fireplace and chimney, new appliances in the modern kitchen, a woodstove in lower level to supplement forced hot water system, family/romper room space off the bedrooms, and an awesome outdoor shower. Moving outside you'll find a convenient storage shed, independent deck for grilling and gathering, stone patio overlooking the water, and a new aluminum dock over the water. Bickford Pond is 237 acres with a max depth of 69 feet, powerboats are allowed but you'll only need a canoe to catch trout in the Spring. Seemingly remote, this camp is 20 minutes from gas, groceries, and dining in historic Cornish, ME, and 35 minutes from North Conway, NH. Open House originally planned for 2/16 has been cancelled due to the impending storm.
