This is NOT your grandfather's log cabin in the woods! Only two hours from Boston and about an hour from both Portland, Maine and Portsmouth, NH - PERFECT for your weekend getaways, or your permanent home. Tucked away in a charming condo-cabin community, where there are about eighteen log-sided cabins, there is a ''woodsy'' feeling all around - boasting a common swimming/boating area of about 1500 feet on sparkling Goose Pond, complete with newly updated docking system, and offering direct access by canoe or kayak into 7-mile long Mousam Lake! On the main level is the primary bedroom, with closet, right across the hall from the bath with shower. The kitchen is recently updated with a new gas stove. Enjoy your favorite meals while dining on the three-season porch, overlooking a private wooded area. The other end of the ''porch'' room invites you to quietly read your favorite book or enjoy the quiet surroundings provided by Mother Nature. The living room, with Cathedral ceiling and also has a propane ''log'' stove, adding to the warmth and charm of the knotty pine interior. Upstairs are two more bedrooms, with closet area between that overlooks the living room below!
The basement is partially finished, with a brand new exercise room, plenty of storage room, washer and dryer and bulkhead access to the outside. There is a fire pit out in the yard, waiting for you to ''sit around the campfire'' and to roast marshmallows and maybe even make S'mores! The possibilities of the area are endless - hike, snowshoe or cross-country ski on trails in about 40 acres of the development. It is also an easy walking distrance from the Shapleigh Town Forest Nature Trail. There are a few really good restaurants within ten minutes' drive, 18-hole golf course within 15 minutes, boating and fishing, and only about an hour from winter skiing and tax-free shopping in North Conway and ocean beaches in Wells, Ogunquit and Kennebunkport are about a half-hour away. So plan to visit toda
