Well-furnished 3-bedroom, 1 Bath home condo available immediately for the winter in an adorable coastal cottage-style building. Just 500ft away from Mother's Beach and Mother's Beach Playground, this unit is perfect for a single professional or a young family looking to enjoy the seaside town of Kennebunk during a quieter season with their own private reprieve. This condo property has only 5 total units and boasts a large and sunny partially-covered porch with absolutely stunning ocean views, 2 dedicated parking stalls for your unit, plenty of street parking for additional guests, and yard space. The interiors have a full range of appliances, including a dishwasher, electric range, as well an in-unit washer/dryer for your convenience. Our unit has baseboard heating in every room, a wall radiator in the living room, closet space, and lots of windows to let the light in. Trash, water, snow removal services, internet, and cable are all included in the rent. Each bedroom is furnished with a bed, dresser, and ample lighting to make staying inside on dreary winter days easy and enjoyable. The primary bedroom has a king-size bed, the secondary bedroom has a queen, and the guest room has two double beds.
Within a few minutes' drive, you will find several wildlife reserves, quaint cafes and restaurants, great spots for winter surfing, and locally owned/operated grocers. Winter activities in Kennebunk include ice skating at the covered Waterhouse Center, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing at nearby Wells Reserve at Laudholm Farm, winter walks along the stunning coastline, and the annual Christmas Prelude event in Kennebunkport which provides a cozy and festive atmosphere. This home is less than 45 minutes away from the Portland International Jetport, and an hour and a half drive via I-95 S to the city of Boston.
The type of tenant we are looking for is mature and respectful, and can commit to a 6-month lease. The rent is $1,800/mo, gas and electric utilities are paid for by the tenant. The security deposit is one month's rent, we also ask tenants to provide first and last month's rent prior to move-in date (one lump sum for the rental period is also welcome!). The unit is available now and the lease ends April 30th 2026. No smoking, no drugs, the landlord will do a formal background check that includes employment, rental, and credit histories. No prior evictions.
This is an unbeatable location at an incredible price, and a truly cozy and peaceful condo for the right person/people. If interested, please reach out to Dani via Zillow Messaging and let us know a little bit about yourself. We look forward to speaking with you!
