One-floor living at its best! Bright, comfortable, and move-in ready, this delightful ranch is ideal as a first home, retirement retreat, or year-round getaway with all the benefits of Maine lake life. Just 0.3 miles from the Gardner Lake public boat launch and swimming area, you'll love the easy walk to the water for boating, kayaking, fishing, or a refreshing swim. Enjoy the perfect blend of peaceful country living and convenient access to one of the area's favorite lakes. Inside, the welcoming wood-paneled sunroom features a cozy propane stove; step through the sliding glass door to a wraparound deck that spans two sides of the home--perfect for relaxing or entertaining. A comfortable kitchen with granite countertops, a breakfast bar, and a convenient desk nook opens to the living/dining room. Note the view of nature from every window! Appliances include the washer, dryer, built-in stove top and oven; as well as the microwave and refrigerator, both new in 2024.
