New to the market! A classic Thorburn Cottage! Nestled on the edge of an expansive, open field w/ captivating long views down Harpswell Sound to open ocean. This, one of 6 privately owned cottages, very rarely come on the market. Charmingly original with appropriate updates. 9+ acres of open fields to the ocean, shared dock W/ mooring. Oversize porch/deck for lazy days watching the stunning views, to quiet, cozy evenings around the wood burning fire place. Truly a special place to make memories!
