About This Home
As of August 2024Farview Cottage is a cherished midcoast retreat, nestled on an acre of serene, park-like grounds surrounded by water. Each morning, the distant chime of the bell buoy greets you, accompanied by views of lobster boats and sailboats drifting across Muscongus Bay during your coffee ritual. As the day draws to a close, the screened porch or expansive deck becomes the perfect vantage point to witness stunning sunsets and moonrises. Farview's location offers panoramic vistas of Muscongus Bay to the east and John's Bay to the west, complemented by refreshing ocean breezes that temper even the warmest days.

Nearby attractions such as the historic Pemaquid Lighthouse and beloved dining spots like the Seagull, Contented Sole, and Shaws enhance the area's appeal. The property encompasses not only the main house and its grounds but also a separately deeded lot and an artist's studio.
