221 Soper Road, Orland, ME 04472
What's special
A home with a story to tell, 221 Soper Road has been in the same family for three generations. Originally built as a camp in the 1940s and expanded into a year-round home in the 1960's, it offers room to gather, spread out, and make lasting memories. Set along approximately 225 feet of waterfront on Alamoosook Lake, this home provides a chance to enjoy lake living throughout the year. Start the morning in the sunroom watching the lake come to life, spend an afternoon by the water, and settle in on the screened porch as the day winds down. Wildlife is a desirable part of the experience here; you will spot ducks and loons on the lake, hear owls in the evening, see deer passing through, and even catch sight of the occasional moose, as the current owner recently did. Inside, the spacious kitchen provides a natural gathering place, while separate living and family rooms give everyone room to relax. A first-floor bath and laundry add everyday convenience. Upstairs, the expansive primary bedroom has plenty of space for a sitting area, home office, or dressing area. Three additional bedrooms and a second full bath provide flexibility for guests, a large family, hobbies, or whatever comes next. The layout reflects the home's history, a lakeside camp that grew with the family who loved it. Located along a quiet, dead-end road, the property offers a peaceful lakeside setting with convenient access to Route 46 and I-95, while Bangor International Airport is less than 30 miles away. Nearby Bangor and Brewer put shopping, dining, entertainment, healthcare, and everyday services within reach. Ellsworth offers additional shops and restaurants, along with a starting point for exploring Mount Desert Island and Acadia National Park. Whether you're looking for a year-round home or a place to make the most of time at the lake, 221 Soper Road brings together waterfront living, generations of history, abundant wildlife, and the kind of Maine setting that makes you want to stay.
