Wake up to the sound of waves, greeted by sunrises that light up the horizon. This extraordinary post and beam home sits on nearly two acres, offering a front-row seat to the Atlantic, with 75 feet of private beach, perfect for barefoot strolls, lobster bakes, or simply hunting for sea glass.The home was designed for those who live to entertain and love to cook. The kitchen, designed by a professional baker, is more than its upscale finishes—it's a thoughtfully crafted space made for both cooking and bringing people together. The kitchen island spills into the expansive living spaces, and the entire first floor gives off a lovely, effortless vibe. Then there's the view. From the second you step through the door, you're met with a panoramic sweep of Casco Bay that can take your breath away. The ocean breeze fills the home, and there's something magical about throwing open the windows and letting the salty air and sound of waves flow through the house. The front lawn, wide and flat, invites games, gatherings, and impromptu lawn parties, while the private beach below calls for bonfires, kayaking, and paddle boarding. In the rear of the property you can store your toys or build out a gym or studio space in the detached heated garage; you can pick fruit in the small orchard; or you can bring new life to an already framed ADU that is ready for your finishing. There is a delightful privacy and slowness as you wander through the back yard. Living at 52 Shipwreck Cove is about embracing a lifestyle. It's where the ocean becomes part of the everyday, and every day feels like a getaway. It's not just a home—it's an experience.
