Harpswell, Maine, this exquisite waterfront estate at 1241 Harpswell Island Road offers a rare blend of timeless charm and contemporary elegance. Spanning 445 feet of diverse waterfront along Gun
Point Cove, the property boasts a deep-water dock, a protected shallow tidal area, sandy shores at low tide, a boat mooring, and a private dock, creating an idyllic coastal retreat. A quintessential Dutch Colonial seaside cottage,
steeped in nostalgic allure, serves as a charming
three-bedroom, 1.5-bath residence. With easterly
water views, wide-plank wood floors, and vintage
floral wallpaper, this cottage exudes character and
has been a successful Airbnb, offering guests an
authentic Maine experience. The cozy interiors invite relaxation, while the serene backyard provides a picturesque backdrop. Built in 2009, the main house blends open-concept living with breathtaking easterly and southerly views of both deep and shallow tidal waters. Large windows frame the mature terraced gardens and gently sloping lawn that lead to the water's edge. The second-story primary en-suite offers elevated
water views and includes a versatile open space,
ideal for additional bedrooms or a private retreat. A second-story, one-bedroom efficiency apartment with distant water views provides a perfect guest suite or private retreat. Additionally, a separate studio, previously used as an art gallery, offers flexible space for a home business, creative studio, or bunkhouse, adding to the property's versatility. This exceptional Harpswell estate captures the essence of coastal Maine living, offering unparalleled water access, captivating views, and a unique opportunity to own a piece of New England's storied coastline.
