Harpswell, Maine
We invite you to stay and relax at our unique and tranquil getaway. The serenity here is sure to capture you ~ The private home is situated above the ocean, surrounded with beautiful nature in all seasons.
Located in Harpswell, off the beaten path, but also close to the town of Brunswick, and very close to Bowdoin College.
The space
The cottage is situated at the very end of a private road, which is a definite attraction of the home while being surrounded in nature, such as birds, wildlife, ocean and trees, as well as wildflowers during spring and summer.
This cozy cottage is newly renovated!! As you enter through the front door, you are greeted by the fully stocked kitchen, which is equipped with new appliances. The cottage has an open floor plan, with the dining table near the kitchen. The living room is furnished with a new couch, (which is a pull out for an extra guest) TV for streaming, chair, and end tables. From the living room, you can access the back door, leading out to the deck. The newly constructed back deck is a glorious spot for taking in all of the beauty of the area, while enjoying your favorite beverage !
On the second floor you will find the bedroom, presenting a queen size bed, and closet with storage for clothing. The full bathroom is located on the main floor, equipped with a stackable washer/dryer for your use.
The large yard wraps around the home, with many trees and slight ocean views. There is plenty of off road parking for two vehicles. There is also shore access from the property, with a rough path to the ocean-- it is quite steep at the top, but worth the effort with beautiful views available from the shore. throw some lunch in a backpack, and you will have yourself a most serene lunch date at the Spy Rock Beach ! We of course ask that our renters respect nature, and not leave any litter behind. We are working to make this path more easily accessible for our guests--Not recommended at this time to try to bring kayaks down our path !
Harpswell is one of the most special little coastal towns you will ever visit ! From the hiking trails, galleries, gift shops, restaurants, little beaches, kayaking, boating, to fresh lobsters around every corner, there is something for everyone to enjoy !
This home in Harpswell is conveniently located 15 minutes from Brunswick, take the train from there and travel the Maine coast. Brunswick is also home to Bowdoin College, which offers the Maine State Music Theatre, with superb productions, and museums to enjoy ! Close to Portland, and Freeport, home of LL Bean, many outlet shops, and restaurants. Driving distance to Popham Beach…the most spectacular stretch of sandy beach in Maine, along with historical forts to explore. Bath, Phippsburg, Boothbay Harbor, and Bar Harbor all all great day trips! So many sights to see in and around Harpswell !
Please Note : We ask our renters to abide by the very slow driving speed down the private road which leads to the cottage, with respect to the very few neighbors on the road.
