Is it an insulated and heated year 'round house or a summer/seasonal house because the walls and pitched ceilings look to be non-insulated?

It certainly appears to be a non-insulated summer house which seems very unusual for a designer/big money house like that.

" ....... heat ..... insulation ...... don't need it ...... don't want it ...... we only go there from June 27 to August 13 ...... and that's it ..... for just 7-weeks!"

60-year old Kenneth Irving, grandson of Irving Oil founder, K.C. Irving 1899-1992 ...... you know the Irving Oil gas stations all across NH and Maine ...... maybe he lives in Saint John, New Brunswick and for him it's not unusual to have a non-insulated summer house down in Maine, between Bangor and Mt Desert Island just for a simple summer place on the water ..... nothing too fancy .... sort of like a Lake Winnipesaukee island house! ..... asking price, ten million dollars, includes 484-acres and 1.5-mile shoreline on deep water, Craig Pond in Orland, Maine with 11-rooms and 8-bathrooms, domestic plumbing water drawn from the lake.

So's when you turns on the kitchen faucet .......apparently ....... what comes out is Craig Pond water ....... just like a Lake Winnipesaukee island house ..... and most everyone does the lug-a-blue-jug for cooking and coffee from the water vending machine at the Hannafords' Store.
