15 Lois LaneSweden, ME 04040Sale Price: $440,000

Custom built home located amongst the lakes and mountains of Sweden, Maine!!! This oversized Victorian style home is absolutely eye-catching with its grand stone turret, mahogany woodwork throughout, and a sunken sunroom with vaulted ceilings and marble floors. The property sits back from the road on a lovely 2.5 acre lot with an abundance of grassy yard space and woods to explore. A detached barn with three stalls, a tack room, and expansive lofted area is both a handsome and functional structure. Inside, the kitchen greets you with clever pull-out cabinetry, granite counters, tiled floor and stainless steel appliances. The living room features all hardwood floors and bay windows that create a perfect sitting or reading nook. This area overflows into the recently added three season porch just awaiting final touches before becoming your go-to spot for dinner and games on a summer's night. Upstairs are three bedrooms, all with hardwood flooring, and one full bath with both a shower stall and tub. The primary bedroom utilizes the contour of the turret for additional windows and space and there is a secret passage to a partially finished attic area which currently serves as an office but offers potential for so much more (pre-plumbed for an additional bathroom). In the lower level you will find an in-law efficiency space with a small kitchenette and private 3/4ths bathroom. Pass through the laundry/utility area (which is wired for a portable generator) and into a recently finished bonus room, perfect for a home gym, media room, or man cave! Nearby recreation includes the snowmobile trails, Stearns Pond for swimming and fishing, and Pleasant Mountain for hiking and skiing. For those looking to get out for a bit more adventure, vibrant downtown Bridgton is only 15 minutes away and North Conway, voted one of the top ski towns in the country, is roughly one half hour. This home is located in the highly sought-after Fryeburg Academy School District.
