Slip away to Seabox Cottage, your ideal summer retreat or year-round haven. Reminiscent of the gracious turn-of-the-century summer homes of Dark Harbor, Seabox blends timeless craftsmanship with modern comfort. A long gravel drive winds through the wooded property and opens to sunny, landscaped gardens, arriving at a circular turnaround that welcomes you to the home's charming wraparound covered porches. Inside, the home offers elevated views of East Penobscot Bay from both levels. At the heart of the first floor is an open-concept living space anchored by a stunning stone fireplace. The well-appointed cook's kitchen with pantry flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas, all opening onto porches with water and garden views. A separate room currently serves as a library and office, also with porch access, along with a full bath, mudroom, and laundry. An elegant window-lined staircase leads to a second-floor family room, where a wood stove adds warmth and character. On one side lies the primary suite, featuring a walk-in dressing room, separate closet, and luxurious bath with walk-in shower and soaking tub. On the other side are two additional bedrooms and a full bath. The property spans two parcels and includes two wells, two septic systems, a storage shed with electric car charger, and a designated area for RV or camper parking with water and septic hookups. Seabox offers both lifestyle and flexibility, enjoy it yourself, and when you're away, take advantage of its proven rental appeal. Ideally located near island amenities, library, public courts and fields, town center, trails, and beaches, it's a special place to relax, recharge, and enjoy the best of island living.
