47 Mill Street in Princeton is a rare find. It's a charming single-story home offering 255 feet of water frontage on the flowage of the St. Croix River. With direct access by boat to three expansive lakes, Lewey, Long, and Big Lake, this is an ideal spot for anyone seeking uninterrupted recreation in a peaceful natural setting.
Lewey Lake, just a boat ride away, spans over 1,100 acres with summer water temperatures typically in the high 60s to low 70s. From there, you can reach Long Lake, a 4,900 acre lake known for its depth and clear water, before arriving at Big Lake, another impressive body of water with over 3,000 acres to explore. Altogether, you'll have easy access to over 9,000 acres of connected waterways, without ever needing to trailer your boat. Fishing here is excellent, with smallmouth and largemouth bass, perch, salmon, and brook trout all calling these lakes home.
The home itself is comfortable, efficient, and full of potential. It offers true one-floor living with a layout that flows well, making it easy to maintain and enjoy. A screened-in back porch overlooks the water and adds extra living space to take in the view bug-free. Whether you're curling up next to the propane stove in winter or spending summers paddling and fishing, this home is set up for year-round enjoyment.
Located in the quiet town of Princeton (population under 1,000), the area offers the essentials: Princeton Foodmart, Ace Hardware, Freshies, and local spots to eat, including The Old School Family Restaurant. The Princeton Municipal Airport accommodates small aircraft, and Calais, just 30 minutes away, offers a hospital, Walmart, and additional shopping. Machias is about 40 minutes out and is home to the annual Wild Blueberry Festival, the University of Maine at Machias, and Downeast Community Hospital.
With reasonable taxes, an attractive price, and one of Maine's best lake chains at your doorstep, 47 Mill Street is perfect for anglers, boaters, and nature lovers alike
