Owner's Profile
Owner Description
I am a licensed architect and professional musician. You can find me playing saxophone and electric violin at Brays Pub in Naples in the southern Maine lakes region nearly evey Sunday night during the summer season. Stop by and say hello.
Why the Owner Chose Bridgton
When I saw this property it was like the cottage sat "in" the water. The large deck sits at water's edge and has a superb view down the lake. I re-designed and gutted the inside of the cottage and rebuilt it in the Maine "Knotty Pine" style, but with modern appliances. This is a peaceful, private location with sunshine from early morning till mid to late afternoon. You'll love it!
