Nestled in the heart of Drakes Island and 5 houses away from the beach, this delightful cottage blends timeless character with modern comfort. Originally built in 1900, the home has been thoughtfully and thoroughly renovated - featuring cedar shake siding, energy-efficient windows and a brand new roof. The updated kitchen shines with new appliances, countertops, fresh sink and faucet and beautifully refinished cabinets. The first floor bathroom has been tastefully remodeled with a tiled shower, new sink and toilet. A newly constructed outbuilding - connected to the main house by a roofed overhang - offers a second full bathroom and laundry area with washer and dryer, adding convenience and flexibility. Fresh paint throughout the interior, including floors, walls and ceilings, gives the home a crisp, welcoming feel. Upstairs, added insulation and shiplap walls create a cozy retreat, enhanced by ceiling fans and a Mitsubishi mini-split ductless system for efficient heating and cooling. Most furnishings will convey, making this a turnkey opportunity to enjoy right away. As a member of the Drakes Island Improvement, you'll have access to tennis, pickleball and basketball courts, two playgrounds and a beloved children's day camp offering a variety of summer activities. Drakes Island is situated between Kennebunkport and Ogunquit close to shopping, dining and local attractions.
