109 Sahagian Road, Belgrade, ME 04917

The approach sets the tone. A half-mile private road winds through the woods, climbs to a hilltop, and opens onto something you don't find by accident. This 1890 New Englander sits on just over 30 acres in Maine's Belgrade Lakes Region: a six-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home with three wood-burning fireplaces, hardwood floors throughout, and the kind of construction quality that age only confirms. The house has been a genuine family home for decades, and that shows in all the right ways. Inside, wide archways connect the rooms so the first floor breathes as one. The kitchen is the center of it all, open and generous, flanked by formal and informal living spaces built for gathering. A walk-in pantry, first-floor laundry, and a 2-car garage with direct interior entry round out the practical side. The primary suite has a soaking tub, double vanity, and walk-in closet. Two living rooms, a library, a den paneled in warm wood, and twelve rooms total across three levels. The finished walkout lower level adds a spacious family room, a private office anchored by a brick fireplace, and a bedroom with a full bath, making this a house that adapts to however many people you need it to hold. Outside, the land earns its keep. A two-story timber-frame barn, original hand-hewn beams raised 125 years ago, has been professionally restored and lifted onto 10-by-10 supports built to stand another century. A 20-by-20 cabin in the woods has its own screened porch and loft. Apple and pear trees, berry bushes, a heated pool, and a hot tub. At night, without light pollution, the sky above this property holds more stars than most people have seen in years. Walk to Belgrade Lakes Village, Great Pond, the marina, and an award-winning golf course. Located midway between Augusta and Waterville, with easy access to healthcare and services. A carriage house adjacent to this property is available for purchase separately. Some places you move into. Some you belong to. This is the second kind.
