115 N Shore Ln, Winthrop, ME 04364

Originally a grand, Maine summer home on the desirable north shore of Cobbossee Lake, this circa 1902, 11 room property has been extensively restored and modernized yet has retained the noble character that makes this "grand dame of the lake" as stately now as in days gone by. Sprawling lawn leads 60' to the pristine water's edge and boasts 188' of private south facing lakefront. An exceptional waterfront feature is the expansive concrete dock and adjacent concrete boat launch! Made to withstand the toll of time and elements, this home inside and out is as solid as a rock. Upon approach to the house front and back, be greeted by a unique expanse of glassed enclosed living porches with a most unusual bank of windows on the inside walls. This environment grandly welcomes and makes a beautiful statement yet it is literally every room, every detail, and every feature in this home that shouts unique and timeless. The ever changing, entertainment friendly exterior is just as spectacular and adds to the drama of such a palatial home. The unmatched structural integrity, stunning lake views from the sweeping and grandiose glassed porch are second to none. The vintage arts and crafts character plus decor details all tastefully preserved, truly amaze the senses. Elements such as rich, wide crown moldings, double drawer room doors, servants quarters, multiple parlor environments, massive main floor master bedroom with bath, gathering room with stunning stone working fireplace and hand painted ceiling mural, flowing fire, maple and oak hardwood floors, plus 3 bedrooms and full bath up, a Maine flavored knotty pine den, spacious office overlooking the lake, lovely kitchen with plenty of elbow room plus an adjoining butler's pantry, huge in home fitness room complete with sauna and bar, and a heated marina storage area are only some of the many highlights this distinctive home offers. Mindful of home efficiency, the Buderus boiler with 8 zones and 2 pellet stoves ensure that this residence stays toasty warm all winter long. Private and secluded, with proximity to everything needful is icing on the cake. A short walk leads directly to the 2nd hole on the Augusta Country Club golf course, with shopping, pharmacy, elementary school, and easy access to the I-95 interstate less than 4 miles from the circular driveway. This 1.5 acre, 3500 SF enchanting property on nine miles of lake is a definite "must be seen to be fully appreciated"!
