About This Home
Step back in time with this charming 1930s vintage year-round cottage set on 2+ acres along the shores of the St. Croix River in Calais. Featuring three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, this special home blends the character and warmth of an earlier era with many thoughtful updates, including a brand-new roof. Enjoy sweeping views across the St. Croix River to Canada from this peaceful waterfront setting. The property also includes its original barn, adding both character and possibilities to the property. Perched near the edge of the riverbank is a delightful seasonal studio—a wonderfully inspiring space for writing, painting, reading, or simply escaping for a quiet afternoon while taking in the ever-changing river views. While the setting feels wonderfully peaceful and removed, the conveniences of Calais are close at hand, including a hospital, Walmart, shopping and everyday services, as well as the St. Croix Country Club for those who enjoy a round of golf. With more than two acres, a beautiful waterfront setting, vintage cottage character, numerous updates, and captivating views across the international waters to Canada, this distinctive property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the beauty and tranquility of Downeast Maine without giving up the conveniences of town.
