About this home
Across the small land bridge, 17 acres wait on their own island, nearly 2,600 feet of Sebasticook Lake frontage wrapped around them, every foot of it unshared with another property. Longtime locals know it as Tsuga Island, named for the hemlocks that stand through the woods.
The home is a 3-bedroom, 2-bath log-sided house, two full stories under a standing-seam metal roof, 2,186 square feet. Heat and hot water run on two systems working together: an oil boiler and a wood gasification boiler, giving the home ample hot water for showers, dishes, and heat without leaning on one source alone.
The current owners have spent real time shaping the land, and it shows. The yard around the house is landscaped and maintained, with a fire pit ringed in seating and a screened tent for sitting out bug season without slapping at anything. Parking handles a crowd.
From the house, a footbridge carries the trail out to a small dock, benches nearby, a place to tie up a boat or drop a line. The trail keeps going from there, tracing the shoreline to the left. It's laid out and kept the way a nature conservancy manages a preserve trail, not a backyard path. The route passes a sandy, shallow beach on the west shore, then a marsh thick with birds on the east side, then a stretch of evergreen forest holding the island's mature hemlocks. It ends at a point, more seating, open water in every direction.
The bank eases in gently enough near the dock that swimming here is easy, no wading through muck to reach the good water.
The property already runs as a seasonal VRBO, with guests returning year after year, and the booked season only covers part of what the calendar allows. Room to grow it is real, whether that means offsetting the mortgage or building it into something that stands on its own.
Not every property earns the word private. This one does, on every side, for as long as you're willing to cross that road to get to it....
