Oxford, ME 04270Price: $825,000

Escape to your own slice of Maine on the shores of one of the state's cleanest lakes -- 4,000 acres, 9 miles long, and known for its clarity. This two-bedroom, one-bath, 706 sq ft cottage sits on a private 1.7-acre lot just 20 feet from the water's edge, with 150 feet of private frontage. The shoreline slopes gently from a sandy bottom to 10 feet of depth, ideal for swimming, diving, and boating. Inside, a 16-foot wall of Andersen windows frames a panoramic, bird's-eye lake view and floods the space with natural light. Beyond the 706 sq ft of interior living space, a 200 sq ft screened porch -- built under the same roofline as the main house and topped with a brand-new 2026 roof -- adds bonus outdoor living, perfect for breezy, bug-free mornings and evenings overlooking the water, with about 40 steps down to your private dock. Set on the east shore, you'll take in west-facing sunsets over the lake every evening. The lot is spacious and secluded, yet close to local amenities -- 45 minutes to Portland, an hour to the White Mountains/Bethel, ME, and two hours to Boston. A rare opportunity to own a low-maintenance retreat on a pristine Maine lake.
