About This Home

As of December 2020

Located a short walk from the beach you'll find Beachside cottage; a sunny and charming ranch featuring an open single story floor plan, large rooms, a lovely deck, a brick fireplace, and ROW access to a private sandy beach looking out to Penobscot Bay. The layout flows through a large kitchen and dining space, into the living room with a sliding glass door and access to the deck. 3 bedrooms, including one master en suite, and a full bathroom in the hall complete this property. The level lot offers plenty of room for gardening, and an attached garage space allows for storage and a utility room. Great seasonal rental history, or enjoy it for yourself!
