6 Shepherds Way, York, ME 03909

Surrounded by stone outcroppings and luscious landscaping sprinkled with pachysandra, this classically designed Cape Cod style home is beautifully sited to capture distant views of the glistening ocean, along with seasonal glimpses of the York River. Within the manageable 1,390 square feet, the home merges the interior spaces with the outdoors so natural light floods into all the rooms and you'll always feel connected with the environment, especially on the wrap-around screened-in porch. The focal point of the open living space in this year-round residence is its remodeled kitchen with tiled countertops, a peninsula that provides barstool seating, along with stainless steel appliances. Adjoining are the dining room with a large picture window and window seating, and a living room with a custom tiled fireplace hearth. Off the main living area, is a first-floor bedroom with an attached bath. Upstairs, you'll find a spacious guest room, or second floor primary, along with cedar-lined storage seats and a full bath with tiled shower and standing tub. Enjoy your morning coffee and alfresco dining on the brick patio while savoring the sea breezes. York Harbor, a year-round community, and vibrant summer destination, has quaint restaurants, coastal trails along Fisherman's and Cliff Walk, and a crescent-shaped sandy beach within a short walk away.

Stunning landscaping, breathtaking sunsets, and a large screened porch with mahogany decking for winding down and taking it all in. This gem of a cottage sits high on Sentry Hill in historic York Harbor, one of southern Maine's most beautiful coastal villages, from where, during the Revolutionary War, colonists kept watch for British ships entering the harbor. Nestled at the end of a private way, this year-round residence would make an equally ideal summer retreat. Landscaped with patios, stone walkways, English country gardens, a meandering lawn, and views in winter of the town below and the ocean beyond, the house is just a short walk to Harbor Beach, the Cliff Walk and Fisherman's Walk, the Hartley Mason Reserve, Wiggly Bridge, and Steedman Woods, as well as to fine dining at two of the town's historic ocean-front inns. A 15-minute drive takes you to Portsmouth, Ogunquit, and the Kittery outlets. Step inside, and this sun-filled, fully renovated, 2-bedroom, 2-bath home features well-proportioned rooms, superb craftsmanship, a Kennebec Company custom-designed kitchen, a window seat with cedar-lined storage chests, meticulous tile work, and custom cabinetry throughout, creating a casual elegance that blends the historic and the contemporary seamlessly. Meticulously maintained, inside and out. Central-air-conditioning, professionally installed irrigation system, stainless steel appliances, fireplace, walk-in showers, and a factory-transferrable roof warranty with 39 years of coverage remaining.
