Farview Cottage is a cherished midcoast retreat, nestled on an acre of serene, park-like grounds surrounded by water. Each morning, the distant chime of the bell buoy greets you, accompanied by views of lobster boats and sailboats drifting across Muscongus Bay during your coffee ritual. As the day draws to a close, the screened porch or expansive deck becomes the perfect vantage point to witness stunning sunsets and moonrises. Farview's location offers panoramic vistas of Muscongus Bay to the east and John's Bay to the west, complemented by refreshing ocean breezes that temper even the warmest days. Nearby, the iconic Pemaquid Rocks beckon with their timeless beauty.
Originally constructed in 1927, this meticulously preserved cottage has been cherished by four successive families, embodying a quintessential Maine lifestyle. Ideal for contemplation, entertaining, or recreation, Farview invites you to savor the essence of Maine living. Surrounding the house, perennial gardens burst with vibrant hues from early spring through fall, adding to the property's allure. Offered fully furnished, Farview includes everything necessary for immediate enjoyment of Maine's charms. Family-friendly antiques grace the interior, alongside locally crafted furniture in the newest downstairs room. Conveniently situated in the mid-coast region, the cottage is minutes from New Harbor and Damariscotta, with Portland a short drive away. Nearby attractions such as the historic Pemaquid Lighthouse and beloved dining spots like the Seagull, Contented Sole, and Shaws enhance the area's appeal. The property encompasses not only the main house and its grounds but also a separately deeded lot and an artist's studio. This versatile space can serve as an office, a peaceful retreat, or a delightful playhouse for children. Farview Cottage embodies a rare opportunity to embrace a cherished piece of Maine's coastal charm, offering a lifestyle defined by tranquility, natural beauty, and timeless allure.
