About This Home
As of February 2021Ocean Park, Maine is a place like no other! It is sandwiched between Saco and Old Orchard Beach, Maine. It has the most amazing shoreline and sandy beach in all of southern Maine. This walkable community is a throw back in time featuring an old fashion soda fountain, local clay tennis courts, shuffle board courts, and walking trails which abut one of Rachel Carson Wildlife Refuge. This cottage is truly a cottage. It is very rustic! Not at all winterized! In a perfect location it is 4-minute walk to the Beach, 2-minute walk to Temple Complex, 4-minute walk to Guild Park and 3-minutes to Soda Fountain and Library. It has 3 bedrooms. 1 bathroom. Kitchen, dining and living room. Three porches, two are enclosed! That is where we live in the summer! This cottage is unique in that it sits on a 5400SF lot that abuts the marsh. Double lots are very rare in this friendly community! Enjoy birds and wildlife galore! Come and make it your own!
