64 Annabessacook DriveWinthrop, ME 04364Price: $515,000

This is the kind of property people wait for--and rarely find. Set on 7.7 private acres just minutes from downtown Winthrop, this property offers space, flexibility, and access to Annabessacook Lake without paying waterfront taxes. Keep your boat on the lake, head out for a last-minute sunset cruise, and come back to your own private setting. No hauling, no hassle, no waterfront tax bill. The large barn adds another layer most homes simply do not offer--ideal for storing recreational equipment, projects, gatherings, or creating additional usable space beyond the home itself. Inside, the home offers multiple living areas, including a bright sitting area off the kitchen, an open-concept living room with pellet stove insert, and a finished lower level currently used as a family room and gym. Recent improvements include a remodeled bathroom, updated sitting area, finished basement space, kitchen shelving upgrades, tree removal to improve safety and usable yard space, and a recently replaced roof. Major infrastructure updates are also being completed by the seller, including a new septic system and water treatment improvements, giving buyers confidence in some of the property's most important long-term systems. Outside is where this property truly stands apart--privacy, usable acreage, hot tub, and lake access combine to create a lifestyle that is increasingly difficult to find in this area. If you've been looking for land, storage, flexibility, and access to the water without the cost of waterfront ownership, this is a property worth seeing in person.
