About the Listing 1064 - 003703
Having been in the same family since the early 1900s, Black Island on Cobbossee Lake is for sale, a very rare gem and opportunity. If you have ever boated to Horseshoe Cove you've been by it; it creates the entrances on both the east and west sides. The 9.5+/- acre island features a beautifully crafted 1989 post and beam 3 BR, 1 BA home finished in V-matched pine and wide pine floors. The house has three generous bedrooms, one on the first floor and two upstairs. The kitchen is open to the large living room and dining room with a brick fireplace. It's a great layout to gather family and friends. The south facing screened porch is large enough for a crowd or a peaceful place to listen to the loons with a cup of coffee or to kick back and enjoy a book. Black Island is surrounded by mostly preserved islands owned by the Kennebec Land Trust which means they aren't developed. The island is a tranquil refuge with two beaches and trails around the island including a rock outcropping which is a favorite swimming spot. Picnic Rock is also part of the property. Access to the island is from Birchwood Association on the west shore in Winthrop. There is a building lot that the sellers own that once had a small seasonal cottage before a tree fell on it; the cottage can be rebuilt to the exact dimensions of the original cottage. Birchwood offers parking and dock space plus trash disposal and drinking water for the Black Island owners. The island house has a three-bedroom septic system and water is piped from the lake; drinking water is brought over. A washer and dryer are also included. Although electric power currently exists via easement, the easement expires with the sale of the property. Buyers may want to explore solar and generator options. The cottage comes furnished and includes an older pontoon boat with 60 hp motor, 16' skiff w/ 25 hp motor, two kayaks and a dock. Island living at its best with permanent mainland access.
