The property boasts unrestricted views of lovely Fortunes Rocks beach.

The property was purchased and built by the Bascom family who after rambling around the country, fell in love with the area and decided they were “done-a-roving” and deemed the compound “Donarovan”. It has remained in the family ever since.

The compound once graced a summer cover of Down East magazine. Nostalgic with charm but with modern conveniences.

Step back in time to the days of the simple seaside....

The area offers activities year-round: walking on the beach, surfing, tennis, jogging, ice-fishing and skating on the ponds and watching amazing sunrises and sunsets.

The dining room has gorgeous wood molding and a built in hutch. The generously sized room comfortably seats 8 for dinner. There is a swinging door to the kitchen and open access to the living room.

The modern kitchen includes a butcher-block countertop and stainless appliances. Hand-made tiles on the back splash and floor add a nautical flair.

Original and beautiful wood molding continues from dining room into living room, along with the gleaming wood floors.

The large living room is flanked by the enclosed porch on two sides and a small guest room on another. Unobstructed views of the ocean can be seen through the large windows.

Fireplace with stunning mantle. Gorgeous wood doors. Double sided staircase leads to the kitchen as well as upstairs to the 2nd floor.

The porch-everyone's favorite room in the house!

With unobstructed ocean views! The enclosed porch is usable for 3 seasons, as well as on sunny mornings in the Winter months.

4 total bedrooms upstairs. All with updated ceiling fans. Wood floors throughout. And of course, with views of the sea

1st floor bedroom off the sun porch and adjacent to the 3/4 bath.

The Fortunes Rocks Beach area is in Biddeford Maine. It is situated between Biddeford Pool and Granite Point with almost 2 miles of sandy beach.

Traditional New England seaside home , the main house has cedar shakes and unobstructed views of the ocean. The expansive yard provides plenty of room for play areas, a garden and/or sitting area.

Fortunes Rocks Beach is a quick ten-minute drive to downtown Biddeford, downtown Saco, and beautiful Cape Porpoise in Kennebunkport.

The Donarovan compound once graced a summer cover of Down East magazine.

The Rooming House is situated along the Pond, with views of the ocean and is behind the main house.

Views of the pond from the large lush lawn area. It's wonderful for kayaking and fishing.

Also known as the "Annex", the building behind the main house was originally made up of 10 boarding rooms for summer vacationers; it was converted to 3 summer rental apartments in the 1930's.

Another bedroom in the main house. This one with lovely views of the pond and ocean beyond.

3rd bedroom in the main house. Simply charming!

The proximity of this compound to the pond and Fortunes Rocks Beach is unparalleled.

Another perspective of the Donorovan compound....wow!

While some updates have been made to each of the 3 rental apartments within the Rooming House, the building retains much of its historical charm and has a "retro" summer feel to it.
