944 Seashore Ave, Portland, ME 04108

Minutes from the ferry, ''Driftwood Cottage'' awaits, very near to the sights and sounds of the acclaimed ''Back Shore'' of Peak's Island. Crashing waves, chiming bell buoys in sea-salted air, lobster boats bouncing about the craggy coves, and the rolling surf of the open ocean is all accessible to you minutes from your cozy getaway! Offering peace and privacy, this lovingly renovated cape is ready for year-round enjoyment. Entertaining is easy on the 16' x 30' deck overlooking the reflecting pond, central to the greenery of a large, tree-lined yard where there's convenient space for evening campfires and boat storage. Walk the weathered dock to your windowed workshop/garden shed. This 12' x 14' sturdy structure could also be recreated as a bunkhouse for guests. Inside, the full kitchen adjoins the sun-lit dining and living rooms. The laundry and full bath complete the first floor. A wood stove and propane heater remove any chill along with two new mini-splits offering cooling as well for sunny Summer days. Upstairs, skylights welcome the light to spacious sleeping quarters, full of built-in closets and bureaus. Easily converted to a two-bed, warmed by knotty pine and privacy shutters, there's room for family, providing that classic cottage feel and reminding you that you've arrived home to the coast of Maine! A new roof in '21, new water heater in '22 and a carport included, just off on the paved avenue. Don't miss this gem! Welcome!
