Built mid 1990’s in the New England Arts and Crafts Lodge style and set amid 42+/- very private surveyed acres with1800+/- feet of dramatic ocean frontage. Access is by public year-round serviced road. The land is mostly wooded with a large beach meadow, a freshwater pond and a small sand cove/ beach. A 2km walk or bike ride brings you to an isolated white sand beach managed by the Nature Conservancy. Fenced front and back gardens with several beautiful and uncommon ornamental trees, shrubs and bushes. The residence is fully serviced including 5G Internet, good drilled well water supply and filter system and dependable backup power and heat. Multiple heating systems include electric, oil furnace, propane Viking range, as well as four noble fireplaces (two with Vermont Casting inserts). Consisting of some 4500 SF the house has large principal rooms, 4 + bedrooms, two car heated garage, workshop, a large dramatic sunroom, a stunning and very large artists studio as well as several quiet sitting areas. Most rooms have wide BC fir or terrazzo floors, with open beamed vaulted wood ceilings in true lodge tradition. Abundant windows, skylights, quality brass lighting and artistic stained glass. The kitchen has been rebuilt with attention to maintaining the house style and character. Upstairs at one end of the house are two master bedrooms with a spacious updated and bright 4 -piece master bath and dressing room, walk-in glass shower and cedar planked walk-in closets. At the other end is a second downstairs half-bath, adjacent shower and cedar plank sauna; opening to the sunroom, back garden and ocean. Upstairs at this end are two additional good sized guest bedrooms with vaulted wood ceilings and a continuation of the décor theme, as well as the workshop and the large bright artist studio. Consider the possibilities. Family and friends will be endlessly intrigued by this unique and memorable home.
