RAYMOND – Perched high above peaceful Thomas Pond, on whose southeastern tip it has 100 feet of sheltered-cove waterfront, and a dock, here is a sweet retreat of a year-round home, a sleek and immaculate custom contemporary that was built in 2013 and feels completely new.

Down the central hall past the second bedroom and a full bath to serve it, the main level features a grand great room, with a soaring cathedral ceiling, a wall of lake-facing windows with doors out to the deck, and a corner, stone fireplace. Set off by a long island, the lovely kitchen has quartz surfaces and stainless appliances.

The entire upper level is devoted to a splendid master suite of about 700 square feet. The bedroom is open balcony-fashion to the upper great room, with a motorized shade (there are high-end window treatments throughout the house) that ensures privacy when it is preferred over the pretty views of the woods. The walk-in closet has built-ins; the dressing room (or office, if you like) and the bath have radiant heat. The glass shower’s sea-green mini-subway tile is among the highlights.

The walkout, daylight lower level provides lots of space for finishing for recreation/exercise, media, overflow quarters, etc., and is already plumbed for a bath.

In addition to its own frontage, the property has 60 feet of shared beach a short walk away. Thomas Pond, measuring 442 acres and having a maximum depth of 64 feet, offers excellent boating, and a “quality bass and pickerel fishery”; plus trout, salmon, and sizable white perch.

There are two garden sheds and a canoe/kayak rack on the 0.39-acre lot, much of it beautifully hardscaped amid natural landscaping.

The 1,840-square-foot home at 7 Pulpit Rock Road, Raymond, is listed for sale at $500,000 by Bridget King and Jason Miller of the King + Miller Real Estate Group at The Maine Real Estate Network (South Portland office). Taxes in 2015 were $3,387. There is an  annual association fee of $300.
