This lovely 3 bedroom year-round home with garage, is perfectly sited offering incredible views on an elevated 1 acre lot with 50 feet of frontage on China Lake. The flexible floorplan, with updated kitchen and bath, allows for one level living but also includes 2 spacious bedrooms and ½ bath upstairs. The partially finished space in the daylight walk out basement adds another ½ bath & laundry area. It is currently being used as an art studio and rustic guest suite, with sleeping quarters, an in-home office area and reading nook under the stairs as well as room for workout equipment. On the main level of this home, the large, expansive deck offers panoramic views of the breathtaking seasonally changing gardens and spectacular sunsets over the lake. After touring this well appointed, energy efficient home, you can step outside to experience the magic! The grounds have been lovingly and meticulously designed and maintained. Side gardens flank the home with features such as a dedicated spring bulb garden, a lupine field, colorful and vibrant handmade bird houses, and artwork created from the surrounding natural environment. There is a lounging area shaded by custom year round awnings, rows of raspberry bushes and a peaceful ''zen'' labyrinth section. You feel like you are stepping into a secret garden when you enter the sandy fire pit area as it is fully surrounded by ever changing gorgeous and fragrant flowering beds. As you stroll down the gentle winding path that leads to the dock, you can admire the birds & butterflies gracefully dancing about the higher grasses & naturalized flowering beds. Once at the shore, use your dock to go for a swim, cast a line, take out a kayak or just appreciate the lake views. Conveniently located just minutes from shopping and China Village Town Landing, and just 20 minutes from Waterville and Colby College to the North or the capital city of Augusta to the South, this gem of a property is a rare find. Experience the way life should be
