Overview

Description

Imagine watching the sun rise, or the moon beams, from the expansive wrap-around, screened porch of this charming, seasonal, vintage, oceanfront cottage! Owned and exclusively enjoyed by the same family for over 50 years, the unobstructed, panoramic views of the Saco Bay are stunning, and the quaint, open rafter floor plan is so reminiscent of the beach house memories treasured by so many of us! The 1.2 acre lot is extraordinary with over 125 feet of direct, unobstructed, ocean frontage and private access to 7 miles of white sandy beach. Soak up the sun, swim in the surf, kayak or paddleboard right from your expansive front yard! This unprecedented offering is perfect for cozy cottage lovers, or those dreaming of building their new oceanfront estate. Conveniently close to I-95, the Portland Jetport, and less than a 2 hour drive from Boston, this property is a true Saco Bay gem!
