About This Home
As of August 2024Sited on a sunny hilltop on a private road, this Cape Cod style home offers a wonderful lifestyle for those who are seeking a piece of real Maine. Launch your canoe or kayak at your deeded tidal waterfront common area, or your power boat at the nearby town-owned deep water landing. Robinhood Cove offers some of the best striper fishing in the midcoast area and is home to seals, eagles and osprey. 43 Birch Island Lane sits on almost two acres of woods and gardens dotted with mature trees, flowers and blueberry bushes. The first floor of the home is open and sunny with a fabulous kitchen finished with classic white cabinetry, an island and granite counters. The kitchen leads to a casual living room with a cozy soapstone wood burning stove. The first level offers the option of one level living with a first floor room that could be utilized as a bedroom or an office. A convenient full bath with laundry is just down the hall. The second level has two front-to-back bedrooms, one with a walk-in closet, and a shared full bath. Gleaming wood floors run throughout the home. The basement level is a nice surprise with 9-foot ceilings and finished bonus space - perfect as a home gym or playroom. There's loads of organized storage and a standby generator offers peace of mind should the power go out. In addition the home has a coveted Maine staple: a screened porch to enjoy the outdoors without the mosquitoes. A fabulous custom-designed 36' x 32' barn is a homeowner's dream: the ground level has storage for 2 vehicles plus a 3-season family room, and a bonus room on the second floor is perfect for seasonal spillover guests. Ideally located in Georgetown - just minutes to Reid State Park, Robinhood Marina, Osprey Restaurant, Five Islands Lobster Company, & the Robinhood Free Meetinghouse (a popular landmark for over 160 years featuring entertainment and more), 20 minutes to Brunswick, and less than one hour to downtown Portland. This is Maine living at its best.
