45 Island Lane, Hope, ME 04847

Perfectly designed for a year-round sanctuary - this property includes a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath modern, main house with an internal garage, an insulated, heated, workshop steps from the house, AND a 900 sqft, epitome-of-Maine-summertime guest cottage steps from Lermond Pond.  The main house design is thoughtfully and incredibly done to the smallest detail. It was built in 2017 with SIPS panels which are highly insulated and make the house passive solar. One floor living - the main floor has a modern kitchen, open-concept, light-filled living space with oversized windows, a balcony, half bath and a grand, primary bedroom suite. The primary bedroom oasis includes a laundry room, a luxurious bathroom, an extra large, easy to access walk-in closet and a bedroom with lake views. The downstairs has two rooms that each could be a bedroom, a full bathroom, a separate entrance and garage space. The main house is surrounded by mature, stunning perennial gardens, a small covered porch with granite steps, a patio for outdoor seating and an insulated, radiant floor heat, SIPs panel built workshop that could be finished as living space. All are connected to a full house generator.  The guest cottage has been tastefully renovated from inside out to include a patio area, a cathedral ceiling primary bedroom, den, bunkroom, living/dining combination with outstanding views just feet from the pond and an updated kitchen and bathroom. The outside of the cottage has been returned to its original charm with cedar shake siding and a new roof. The lake has stone step access and a dock for swimming or sunbathing. The property is 1.25 acres with 300 feet of shore frontage on Lermond Pond.  This property has outstanding possibilities for a family compound, vacation rentals, a summer second house and/or a year round work from home retreat. 4 bedroom septic.
