A Maine lakefront home on 4.5 acres.
Built on the point, renovated for the long haul.
Point Road earns its name honestly. This four and a half acre lakefront parcel sits on a point of land with 345 feet of owned frontage on Wilson Lake, most of it level lawn running straight down to the water. The house went up in 2002 and has been steadily reworked since 2017: new cabinetry with hand-finished, Lichtenberg-style fractal-burn detailing throughout, artisan stone vessel sinks, and a real-antler chandelier over the dining table set the tone for a camp that reads as considered rather than rustic.
The primary suite sits on the first floor facing the lake, with its own balcony and a door onto its own screened porch. Upstairs, each of the three additional bedrooms opens to its own balcony or deck, and one of them has a screened porch of its own. A third screened porch sits off the apartment over the garage, with the most direct view of the water of the three. A cathedral-ceilinged living room with a gas fireplace, an eat-in kitchen built around a full island and pantry, and a first-floor office and laundry round out the main level, along with a sunporch and a full-length lake-facing deck. The walkout lower level is finished as a game room, with a wet bar, a pull-out couch, shuffleboard and a custom Amish log pool table.
It sells turnkey with the custom Amish furnishings included. Arrive with a suitcase, not a moving truck.
Room to spread out, systems built to be left alone.
Everything a Maine lake house needs to run itself through a winter you are not there for: standby power, oil radiant and heat pump systems zoned room by room, monitored security, and a three-car garage with a four-season one-bedroom apartment above it.

What people ask first.
Straight answers to the questions that come up on every call about a Maine lake property.
Where exactly is 17 Point Road?
17 Point Road is in Wilton, Maine 04294, in Franklin County, on the western shore of Wilson Lake. It sits on a point of land roughly 10 minutes from downtown Farmington and 72 miles north of Portland.
How much lake frontage does the property have?
345 feet of owned frontage on Wilson Lake, on 4.5 acres. Most of it is level lawn running down to the water, and the property occupies a point, so the shoreline wraps rather than running flat along one edge.
Is there a dock, and does it convey?
Yes. A ShoreMaster PolyDock modular floating dock sits on the property’s own frontage and conveys with the sale, shown in the gallery. The modular panels make it easy to expand later, and being a floating system makes seasonal removal and upkeep simpler than a fixed dock. The pontoon boat shown moored to it is not included.
Is the house sold furnished?
Yes. The listing offers the property turnkey with the custom Amish furnishings included. The facts sheet lists Furnished: Yes. The custom Amish log pool table in the lower level is part of the furnishings.
How big is the house, and how many bedrooms?
5,011 square feet, four bedrooms, four full baths and one half bath. That splits 3,955 square feet above grade and 1,056 below. There is also a separate four-season apartment above the three-car garage with its own eat-in kitchen, full bath and one bedroom.
Can it be used year round, or is it a summer camp?
Year round. The house was built in 2002 and extensively renovated since 2017. It has a standby generator, underground electric service, oil radiant floor heat and heat pump systems, high-velocity central air conditioning, a monitored security system with video surveillance, a standing-seam metal roof and an insulated poured concrete foundation.
What is the fishing like on Wilson Lake?
Wilson Lake covers 563 acres and reaches 88 feet deep, holding cold water through summer. The Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife lists the principal fishery as landlocked salmon, lake trout, smallmouth bass and chain pickerel. Lake trout reproduce naturally on the rocky shoals and a small native salmon population is supplemented with periodic stocking. Note that the state files this water as Wilson Pond, Wilton, Franklin County.
What is there to do in winter?
Hundreds of miles of snowmobile, cross-country ski and hiking trails run through Wilton, and the network passes very close to the house. Titcomb Mountain in Farmington is about 10 minutes for downhill; Saddleback and Sugarloaf are both under an hour and a quarter. Wilson Lake is fished through the ice from the property’s own frontage.
How far is it from Portland, Boston and the nearest airport?
Portland is 72 miles, about an hour and a half via I-95. Boston is 174 miles, about three and a half hours. Portland International Jetport is 72 miles and Bangor International is 84 miles, and both run daily commercial service.
What are the taxes and the utilities?
Wilton revalued the property for 2026 at $1,434,108, made up of $586,175 in land and $847,933 in buildings, with no exemptions on file. The 2026 tax bill had not yet been committed when this page was last updated, so ask the listing agent for the current figure. The property is served by a private well and private septic, so there are no municipal water or sewer bills. It sits in FEMA Zone X, a moderate-risk flood area.
What is the asking price and the MLS number?
$3,200,000, which works out to about $639 per square foot. MLS #1676823, listed through Coldwell Banker Sandy River Realty. To arrange a showing, see the contact page.
