Property Description
There are places on Moosehead Lake where you can see the water, and then there are places where the lake becomes part of the house. At 79 Nelson Avenue, just 69 feet of private shoreline puts Moosehead literally outside your windows, with a permanent private dock, broad mountain views and a front-row seat to some of the area's memorable western skies and sunsets. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath waterfront home has the character buyers come to Maine hoping to find. Warm wood interiors, exposed beams and a substantial stone fireplace anchor the main living space, while walls of windows keep the lake in view from the kitchen, dining and gathering areas. The layout feels comfortable and unpretentious, equally suited to a quiet weekend at camp or a house full of family and friends. Step outside and the setting takes over. A covered lakeside porch creates a sheltered place to sit above the shoreline, while the lawn leads naturally to the water and permanent dock. Launch the boat in the morning, swim from your own shore, settle into an Adirondack chair in the afternoon and watch the mountains change color across Moosehead as the day winds down. The rocky shoreline, mature birch and cedar trees and established landscaping give the property the feeling of a longtime Maine retreat. Located in Greenville, you're close to restaurants, shops, services and all of the recreation surrounding Moosehead Lake, yet once you're home, the setting feels distinctly removed from town.
