''A brilliant shorefront retreat'' [Yankee Magazine] this 2,800 square foot home, artfully designed by Boston architect Jeremiah Eck blends into its wooded shorefront site, its angular roofline echoing the surrounding granite ledges. Its 180± feet water frontage and breathtaking westerly orientation provide spectacular water-views from every window. In this contemporary multi-level house, Eck created a unique flow of space, enhanced by the ever-changing play of light from windows and skylights. Imaginative yet functional, a large living room with native granite fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows sits three steps below a spacious dining room. An open kitchen with stainless steel and granite countertops, dual ovens and an island with bar seating enable easy entertaining. A screened porch and large deck overlook the shorefront, an informal garden and face the setting sun. An open staircase leads to light-filled bedrooms and a reading alcove. This remarkable year-round home is just 20 minutes to downtown Bath, 32 minutes to Maine Street Brunswick, 57 minutes to Portland and 2.5 hours to Boston.
