House For Sale: An All-Season 1974 Log Cabin on a Private Maine Island

Some people dream about escaping to a private island. For others, the dream is a knotty pine cabin with a massive fireplace. Still others want to be able to swim year-round. But for the person that wants all three of these — behold, the all-season log cabin on a private Maine island with an indoor swimming pool.

This property, located in the town of Freedom ninety miles north of Portland, can appear ordinary if you’re thoughtlessly scrolling. I originally thought it was a sweet little seventies L-shaped cabin with a wraparound porch. But then I kept clicking, and the surprises kept coming. The massive great room with endless windows looking over Sandy Pond. The colorful, homey kitchen. The indoor recreation area.

It’s a New England escape that refuses to be just one thing, and it’s easy to imagine a family making years of memories here, in every season. Have a look and see if it checks any of your dream boxes.
