About This Home
Your Coastal Maine Dream Home - Perfect for Seasonal or Year-Round Living
Dreaming of a home in Maine, where the ocean breeze, rugged beauty, and serene lifestyle await? This ocean-view retreat offers the ideal spot to live year-round or enjoy as your seasonal sanctuary. Imagine waking up to stunning views of the Atlantic, stepping out onto your wraparound deck, and taking a short walk to the beach to hunt for sea glass, shells, and treasures washed ashore by the tides.
Whether you're seeking a peaceful getaway from the hustle and bustle, a place to unwind during the summer months, or a full-time residence in one of Maine's most desirable coastal areas, this home offers it all. Maine's slower pace, breathtaking natural beauty, and endless outdoor activities make it the perfect place to reset and recharge, and this home provides the perfect base to experience it all.
Efficiency, Comfort, and Sustainability
Enjoy all the comforts of modern living with an emphasis on energy efficiency. The home's south-facing orientation takes full advantage of passive solar, and the owned 7.6 kW solar panel system (installed in 2019) keeps electricity bills under 30/month. Radiant heat, 9 heating zones, and multiple heat pumps (installed 2021-2022) ensure year-round comfort whether you're here for the summer sun or winter's cozy retreat. Plus, a whole-house generator ensures you're always prepared for whatever Maine's weather brings.
Secluded Yet Close to Everything
Set back from the road and surrounded by lush landscaping, this home is peaceful and private, yet it's just a short walk to the beach for beachcombing or simply soaking in the view. Maine's natural beauty is right at your doorstep, from raised garden beds and a small orchard with fruit trees to a private pond with a waterfall offering a tranquil place to unwind. There's something about Maine's crisp air and stunning vistas that draw you in—and once you're here, you'll never want to leave.
