183 Harbor Road, Friendship, ME 04547

As soon as you enter the front door of 183 Harbor Road, you know you are somewhere special. This New England cottage was built in 1840 and a 2008 renovation kept much of the original charm and details—like the decorative eaves and gables, or hardwood and tiled floors throughout—while updating the home for modern comfort. The first floor has a large entryway, a living room with wood stove, a dining room, and a bright kitchen that perfectly blends the old and the new with charming antique cabinets paired with updated floors and stove. Bedrooms are all upstairs, and the primary overlooks the harbor. But it's not just a great view nearby: the lobster co-op is about 350 feet away, so you can have the day's catch for dinner. Outside the home is equally stunning. The wraparound porch is screened on one side, perfect for summer evenings. The yard contains gardens and relaxing lawn spaces, and the homeowners' association provides access to tennis courts. Friendship is a sweet, historic fishing town just down the peninsula from Route 1 as it passes through Waldoboro. The turn is right at Moody's Diner, if you're looking for a landmark and slice of pie. As a working waterfront and special spot for summer residents, Friend- ship is perfect for year-round living or a seasonal retreat. Come and see this one-of-a-kind place for yourself at an open house on Saturday, June 17, from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m.
