A rare opportunity to own Blackberry Hill, a cherished family retreat on the Narrows of beautiful Kezar Lake in Lovell. Set on 16.66± acres, this thoughtfully designed three-season cottage offers exceptional privacy, breathtaking sunsets, and sweeping westerly views across Kezar Lake to New Hampshire's White Mountains. Designed by architect Frank Lopez and completed in 1953 for the family of Bishop George Cadigan and artist Jane Cadigan, the 1,389± square-foot cottage blends timeless character with a remarkable natural setting. The home features single-level living with three bedrooms, one bath, cathedral ceilings, warm wood floors, a striking fieldstone fireplace, electric heat for spring and fall comfort, and comes fully furnished for immediate enjoyment. A long, tree-lined driveway leads to the cottage, which sits high in an open meadow overlooking the lake. Relax on the deck, enjoy spectacular sunsets, or explore the surrounding woodlands and shoreline. Owners also enjoy deeded access to the Conifer common beach area. The property is protected by a Greater Lovell Land Trust conservation easement, preserving the property's scenic shoreline, meadows, and woodlands while allowing continued residential enjoyment. The easement permits a dock, selective forest management, meadow maintenance, and the potential for a detached guest building (subject to easement provisions), while ensuring the property's exceptional natural character is protected for generations. Steeped in Lovell history, Blackberry Hill served for decades as the Cadigan family's summer home, where Bishop Cadigan preached at local churches and Jane Cadigan found inspiration for her watercolor and woodblock artwork depicting the beauty of western Maine. Whether you're searching for a peaceful lakeside retreat, a legacy family property, or a place where history, conservation, and natural beauty converge, Blackberry Hill represents a truly extraordinary opportunity.
