twitchell pond cottage in Bethel

2009 is our fourth year listing our summer lake house. The house is situated on a very quiet location on the back of Twitchell Pond - a smaller Maine pond (mid-size lake) that prohibits noisy watercraft and has a very shallow public boat launch. It is a 10 year old, well kept, exceptionally clean cedar home with beautiful views on a dead-end road (only cottage traffic). Secluded swimming and sunbathing with Southwest facing deck and dock for afternoon and evening sunsets. We have a deep water dock for great swimming and diving. There are two quiet sandy beaches with shallow access for little kids nearby (walkable). Heated outdoor shower (full bath/shower inside house too). A Sunfish sailboat, kayaks and canoe are available on property. There are flower gardens and berry bushes surrounding the house and lot. This is peaceful paradise! Quiet walks, hikes and biking are just a few steps away. Local town, theater, golf and grocery are 15 minutes away

Dock, kayaks, canoe, awesome sunsets, deck on sun side of house, outdoor hot and cold shower, satellite dish, full kitchen, inside fire place, outside fire pit by lake, grill, plenty of parking for several cars. Laundry in basement, games.  Beaches (walking distance). No dogs (sorry). IGA grocer in town. Gift stores.
