Property Description
Welcome to this one-of-a-kind seaside retreat at the end of the quintessential Lower Flying Point peninsula. Set on nearly an acre with over 600 feet of your own beachy, rocky & accessible water frontage, this rustic shingle style Salt Box cottage offers an oceanfront escape like no other. A winding forest trail meanders along the edge of your own coastal oasis, where the coming & going of the tides brings daily delights from many vantage points; magical sun & moonrises, vibrant sunsets that illuminate the islands, the sound of water lapping the shore, a front row seat to abundant wildlife & moonbeams shimmering across the ocean that reflect & dance onto the ceilings while you drift off to sleep. This property instantly welcomes one to indulge in the natural cycles & the pulse of life that surrounds. Efficient 3-bedroom, 2-bath home blends character & comfort with large windows oriented to capture the seascape of the islands & beyond, built-ins, exposed beams, skylights, balconies & decks that oblige one to immerse in the beauty of this special place. The practical kitchen, spacious pantry with washer/dryer, office space, open floor plan, propane heaters & cozy wood stove make the home fully functional, while still offering room for your imagination to shape its next chapter. Adding to the charm is a detached sleeping cabin—perfect for a true outdoor overnight experience, a guest hideaway, or simply a quiet spot to unplug & take in the sea air. Mature oak trees frame the easterly exposure, where Ospreys, Eagles, Great Blue Herons, ducks & seals make regular appearances and overhang the many shorefront decks - the decision of the day is where to relax. A workshop shed is very useful, while the island-like setting provides unmatched tranquility. Yet, you're still connected - only 15 minutes to Brunswick & 30 minutes to Portland. Dreamy, peaceful & rare, this oceanfront property offers the chance to get away from it all while staying close to everything that matters.
