Perched above the rocky shoreline of Casco Bay, 1 Bay Road offers an extraordinary blend of refined coastal living and classic Maine beauty. Designed in 1951 by John Howard Stevens and completely reimagined with a full renovation, this 3,720-square-foot waterfront residence captures sweeping, unobstructed ocean views from nearly every room, creating a rare sanctuary just minutes from Portland's vibrant downtown. Step inside to sun-filled living spaces where walls of windows frame sailboats drifting across the bay and the ever-changing colors of the Atlantic. The home features 3 bedrooms and 6 baths, including beautifully updated suites designed for comfort and privacy. Elegant living and dining areas flow effortlessly toward the water, making the property ideal for both quiet relaxation and gracious entertaining. A modern, well-appointed kitchen anchors the main level, while thoughtfully designed gathering spaces, a walk-out lower level, and ocean-facing terrace invites connection to the outdoors. The property's generous waterfront lot offers privacy, fresh salt air, and panoramic shoreline vistas that define Maine's coastal lifestyle. Whether serving as a year-round residence or a cherished retreat, 1 Bay Road delivers the rare opportunity to own a premier piece of South Portland's coastline—where luxury, tranquility, and natural beauty meet.
