Affectionately named The Perch by the current owners for its front-lawn view of bald eagles, blue herons, and other wildlife, this cozy waterfront retreat sits on a quiet cove at the end of a dead-end road with wide-open views. A generous lawn leads to stairs down to the pebble beach - at high tide, it's ideal for swimming or launching kayaks and canoes, while at low tide, tidal pools invite exploration.
Inside, the cottage features designer-selected finishes and timeless Maine charm. The layout includes a spacious living/dining area, kitchen, one bedroom, and a bathroom with a shower. A custom sleeping nook with a trundle bed and a privacy curtain offers additional accommodations.
An outdoor shower and the surrounding birch trees add to the authentic coastal experience, while sunsets over the cove set the stage for quiet evenings by the water. And, as the street name suggests, the sunsets here are nothing short of spectacular.
This seasonal cottage is a rare opportunity to own a truly beautiful piece of the Maine coast.
