Have you dreamed of owning a beach house that has all the charm of a coastal cottage with tons of charm but all the modern day comforts of home? Look no further than 178 Webhannet Drive on Beautiful Wells Beach, Maine! This 1898 home had a full facelift in 2015 where the original boards were repurposed wherever possible and the character of the home was kept intact. When you enter into the home you are met with an open concept living room with multiple sitting areas, a fireplace with a gas insert for efficient year round heat & walls of windows facing the beach & bold views of the Atlantic Ocean! The open concept feel is also on the other side of the home where the dining area & kitchen is located allowing for guests to be all together easily & lots of natural light coming into the home. The kitchen is something you need to see to appreciate with high end appliances, an antique kitchen sink, custom cabinets & white quartz counters. There are wide wood floors on all levels of the home giving you the true cottage feel. There are 5 total rooms currently used as bedrooms with 4 on the second floor & 1 on the top floor of the home which features an office area with gorgeous views. Each bedroom in the home has fabulous views out of multiple windows of the beach or the Rachel Carson wildlife refuge on the other side of the road. The 2nd floor of the home offers cathedral ceilings in each room and did I mention the views? When you walk outside onto the porch facing the water you are met with built in benches along the perimeter, wide steps & a great vantage point to enjoy all of the beauty around you. The lush green grass has been meticulously maintained and the seawall is in fabulous shape with recent work being done on it. There is a stairway leading from the grass down to the beach for easy sand access. All this AND you have a deck facing the road side where you enjoy views of the marsh. The home has mature landscaping, a dry basement, and a 1 car garage!
