Location and Scenic Views
This beautifully maintained classic Maine Colonial home is situated on a prominent point of land overlooking the protected waters of Cape Porpoise. The location offers picturesque views of the islands at high tide, while low tide reveals stunning tide pools and expansive sand flats. Wildlife is abundant, with Great Blue Herons and Egrets frequently seen catching their meals along the water’s edge. Less than a mile away, the iconic Cape Porpoise lighthouse provides a perfect photo opportunity for visitors.
Indoor Living Spaces
The Living room has a large picture window facing the islands. The lighthouse is off to the south and the scenic shack of Fort Island due East. A comfortable couch and chairs create a nice area for relaxing and entertaining. The dining room features a large maple table with 10 seats (additional chairs can be added). A butler’s pantry stores the china and glasses. The newly remodeled kitchen with large picture windows looking out to the islands eases the kitchen tasks. The Maids pantry at the south end of the house, has the washer dryer and the downstairs bathroom.
The bedrooms are furnished with new mattresses, linens and bed covers. The two seaside bedrooms feature gorgeous views and private sinks.
Outdoor Living Spaces
The house features a charming wrap-around porch, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the natural beauty. The seaside dining area is furnished with a teak table and chairs, while two lounge chairs and two Adirondack chairs offer comfortable spots to take in the views and soak up the sun. On the west side of the house, four rocking chairs provide an ideal setting to watch the evening sunset or enjoy a quiet moment away from the main gathering areas. The seating at the end of the pier is lovely in the evening to enjoy the changing light on the islands with you favorite cocktail and snack. Two bicycles are provided to take you swiftly up to town or out to the end of Langsford Road on the other side of town.
Water Access and Recreation
Residents and guests can take advantage of a private pier and float, which serve as convenient access points to the water or peaceful places to relax. Seating is available at the end of the pier, and the float is perfect for swimming, launching kayaks, or paddle boarding. For added enjoyment, two kayaks and a paddle board are provided for renters. Exploring the sand flats is a memorable adventure, easily accessed from the float.
Grounds and Trail Access
A long, winding stone road leads to the house and the private grounds. Passing by the tennis court and barn, the road transitions into a woodland trail that ascends Stone Haven Hill and connects to Pier Road and the Fish Pier of Cape Porpoise. Here, visitors can observe local lobster fishermen at work and enjoy dining at one of three establishments:
• Cape Pier Chowder House: Casual lunch on an open deck
• Ultramar: Renowned for its excellent seafood-based menu
• Casa 77: An upscale bar atmosphere with a diverse menu provided by Ultramar
The town of Cape Porpoise, a 10-15 minute walk, offers several
Tennis and Leisure
The private clay tennis court is just steps from the house, offering an inviting space for matches and practice. Players may be pleasantly distracted by views of the lighthouse while serving to the south side of the court. For spectators, seating for two with an umbrella provides comfort and shade.
Kayaking and paddle boarding are perfect for the protected waters of Cape Porpoise. The sheltered area inside the islands has endless adventures to view seals, cormorants, ducks and gulls. Lobster boats plying the calm waters of Stage Harbor are entertaining to watch as they retrieve their buoys and pull up a trap to collect their catch, tossing the small lobsters back to the ocean.

    Wonderful iconic cottage on the ocean. Very comfortable bedrooms and living room and has a beautiful and well stocked kitchen. The Bowe's (owners) are super hospitable and thoughtful. We look forward to returning!

    Our family just wrapped up our 15th visit to this amazing home and we had a wonderful week! Our hosts are always amazing and we enjoyed the beautiful new kitchen! It’s a peaceful, comfortable and relaxing home that we’ve made so many happy memories in over the years and this year was no exception!

    We brought some friends and family. During our stay we had fog, rain, sunshine and ALL was wonderful. We fished, kayaked, walked, visited with neighbors, shopped and ate fantastic food. Bottom line, it could not have been more perfect.

    We love staying here year after year. The location right on the ocean cannot be beat. We love the sunrises and the changing tides. The porch is the perfect spot for reading and watching the lobster boats pass by.

    Such a wonderful, beautiful, historic home. It was perfect for our family. One of our favorite parts was watching the tide come in and out from all the windows on the east side of the house. We loved walking out in the low tide and taking the kayaks, paddle board and row boat out during high tide. The house had everything we needed and the host was super helpful. What a spectacular place. We'd love to come back!

    This property allowed for a wonderful family vacation with lots to do for the mix of ages. The hosts were friendly. The older home was super clean allowing its history to shine through. The kitchen had plenty of equipment to make meal prep and service easy. We loved our stay.
