Located on exclusive Escumbuit Island, this unique 1.52-acre property, the largest of just four lots on the island, offers an exceptional opportunity to create your own private retreat. The lake is closed to the public, with only a limited number of fishing permits, providing an especially private and peaceful setting. The 1928 seasonal cottage, with a 1991 addition, offers 3 bedrooms, 1 bath, and 1,232 square feet of living space. The property features three docks and four sheds, providing plenty of room for boats, water toys, and storage. Two easements are included for parking and dock access. The cottage has benefited from numerous recent upgrades, including a new hot water heater and water pump in 2026, new stove in 2024, and new washer and dryer in 2023. Property is being sold as-is. Imagine waking up surrounded by water, spending summer days boating and swimming, and enjoying spectacular sunsets from your own island retreat. The family has lovingly enjoyed this special property since 1971, and now this rare offering is ready for its next chapter. Conveniently located near Salem, Atkinson, and Hampstead, you can truly commute from your island paradise while remaining close to everyday amenities. A rare and remarkable opportunity to own one of the most unique properties on Big Island Pond.
