Description
During the 1920s, Lucerne-in-Maine became one of New England's premier summer destinations. Visitors from throughout the Northeast escaped the city heat to enjoy the pristine, spring-fed, granite-bottom waters of Phillips Lake, cool air, and nearby Acadia National Park. Arriving by the Bangor and Aroostook Railroad, whose depot stood at the head of the lake, generations of families discovered this hidden paradise, and now it is your rare opportunity own a piece of this history. Crafted from native logs and designed to complement its natural surroundings, this home showcases the rustic elegance and craftsmanship of a bygone era. The interior has been carefully restored and renovated for year-round enjoyment while preserving its authentic character. A floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and the majestic moose create a warm and inviting atmosphere that captures the spirit of Maine's classic sporting lodges. The design and setting evoke the romance of Maine's classic vacation lodges while offering a sense of tranquility that is increasingly difficult to find. The modern floorplan offers an open great room, gleaming hardwood floors, an ensuite, main level primary bedroom with attached bath, an enclosed porch to enjoy the view, an outside deck for entertaining, a lakeside sleeping cabin, all fully furnished and move-in ready. Situated conveniently on a town-maintained paved road, the property also features a spacious three-car garage with generous overhead storage, blending historic charm with modern convenience. Ideally located just 25 minutes from downtown Bangor and downtown Ellsworth, you'll enjoy easy access to shopping, restaurants, healthcare, and everyday amenities while feeling worlds away in this peaceful retreat. Whether you're searching for a year-round residence, a seasonal getaway, or a legacy property to pass down for generations, this one-of-a-kind home offers a lifestyle rooted in history, nature, and tradition on one of Maine's most sought after lakes
