It's been too long since we've seen a nearly perfect little cottage like this on the shores of Harpswell. The westerly sunset views to open ocean across Potts Harbor and Bar Island Cove will take your breath away. You'll create lasting memories with family and friends when entertaining and hosting casual dinners, cocktails and board games in Neptune's Den, the boathouse on the water's edge.

The westerly sunset views to open ocean across Potts Harbor and Bar Island Cove will take your breath away. You'll create lasting memories with family and friends when entertaining and hosting casual dinners, cocktails and board games in Neptune's Den, the boathouse on the water's edge. Kayak out to explore Bar Island, Potts Point Preserve or any of the other nearby islands. The town dock and mooring field is just a short stroll from your front door. Maybe a bowl of chowder with a blueberry muffin from The Dolphin or a crabster roll and onion rings is what you crave today from Erica's Seafood, both are just a 5 minute car ride away. Enjoy everything Harpswell has to offer from this beautiful 2 bedroom cottage.
