This coastal home has been beautifully updated, to include kitchen countertops/backsplash, bathrooms, appliances, flooring, heat pumps/AC units, a generator and landscaping. The westerly views over Basin Cove give you sunsets and the sea breeze. Enjoy the sights from the deck or living room with the sliding glass doors wide open. Want to get out on the water? The right of way is a short distance, with a gradual walk to the cove to launch a kayak or canoe. Or there is a full service marina and boat launch only a mile away. Additionally, there are recreational options in Harpswell for walking trails, beaches and picnic areas. Located 20 minutes to Brunswick and one hour to Portland.
Ever wanted to have a genuine Maine experience? Live "the way life should be"? Breathe in the salt air, walk just steps to the ocean, or take in the sweeping views from this classic saltbox-style home. Boasts an abundance of natural sunlight, beautiful ocean-blue tile in both baths, wide-boarded pine floors, and cathedral ceilings. Kitchen tastefully combines modern touches like stainless appliances and granite with the charm of a Maine cottage. Grab this gem up before summer's end!
