Welcome to Sea Mist, an oceanfront shingle-style home nestled in one of Owls Head's most distinctive neighborhoods. The owner, who had grown up in Maine, was searching for the perfect connection with the water and wide sky views. After 9 years, he found this spot and built his retirement home. Situated close to the water, the property features 405' of waterfront, surrounded by rocky outcroppings for privacy, and a wide, gradual pebbly beach perfect for playing and swimming. The sound of the waves on the beach will present a beautiful background melody to your days and nights. The property faces north, overlooking Penobscot Bay towards Rockport, the Camden hills, North Haven, and far beyond to Blue Hill and Cadillac.
This stunning home offers three ensuite bedrooms and ocean views from every room, but the soaring great room, with its large expanse of windows, gives you a front row seat to all the activity on the bay. Schooners and sailboat regattas skim across the water and lobster boats haul out traps right off the beachfront. Spectacular rose-gold sunsets, as well as dramatic storm clouds, are a regular view. The interior was designed to capture the traditional style as closely as possible, with its quarter sawn oak trim and period fixtures, while providing all the conveniences of modern living. A spacious screened in dining area is the perfect spot for summer meals, and gardens of perennials surround the home. A two-car garage with an extra storage bay is attached to the house via an open breezeway. A spacious bonus room above could be turned into additional guest quarters.
As part of the community, you have access to a deep-water pier and dock, and tennis courts that also can be used for pickleball. The home has its own mooring as well. Experience tranquility and nature at its finest at Sea Mist.
Seller willing to offer Buyer concessions. Some furnishings may be available.
