About This Home

Turnkey Chalet on Gardner Lake - 487' Waterfront, 6.56 Acres. This beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 2-bath Chalet offers a rare opportunity on coveted Gardner Lake with almost 500 feet of clear, surveyed waterfront and almost 7 acres of privacy. The open kitchen-dining-living space is ideal for summer fun, holiday gatherings, and lakeside relaxation. Enjoy lake views from the second-floor suite with a cozy reading nook, or retreat to the finished walkout basement featuring two bedrooms, a spacious second living room with a woodstove, and sliding glass doors for direct lake access. The highlight - a 28' x 7' screened-in porch with a bar - perfect for morning coffee, rainy-day reads, or evening cocktails to the calls of the loons. The property boasts mature plum, apple, and pear trees, grape vines, and a raspberry patch. Lovingly owned for over 20 years, this home offers a solid 3-year rental history on VRBO and Airbnb - ideal as a year-round retreat or income-generating rental. Located just 10 minutes from downtown Machias with its shops, restaurants, university, and seasonal farmers' markets, plus nearby saltwater access, trails, ATV routes, and kayak launches. A rare gem on one of Washington County's most cherished lakes.
