Luxury 6-bedroom, 4-bath Home In Extraordinary Private Setting-walk To Beach
This beautiful contemporary colonial home is less than one mile -- a 20 minute walk-- to the gorgeous beaches of Biddeford Pool. Located on a 3.5 acre parcel at the end of a private road and surrounded by a nature preserve, this property is exceptionally private and pristine. The house is elevated on a craggy coastal bluff and the ocean can be seen from the cupola. A glassed-in front porch is a terrific place to enjoy the morning sun, and a large open deck is a perfect gathering spot for sunning, outdoor grilling and viewing sunsets over the marsh. The hilltop setting and nearby ocean produce coastal breezes and you can often hear the surf.
The first floor features a gourmet kitchen, a spacious dining room, and a double parlor living room with double patio doors leading to a large, open deck. One of the living rooms, separated by French doors, includes a ping pong table, but can also be utilized as a bedroom for those choosing to stay on the first floor. A first floor bath features a large custom shower with granite pebble floor located near the entrance, a perfect place to wash the sand off your feet after a day on the beach.
Six large bedrooms are located on the upper floors. The second floor features three bedrooms, two of which share a common bath. The master has a private bath. Three bedrooms on the third floor share a full bath. The five king and one queen size beds are all exceptionally comfortable with individually wrapped coils and quality linens. If the ocean breezes don’t keep you cool enough, the central AC on the upper floors will!
The first floor entry, sunroom, kitchen and dining rooms have custom tile floors, while the living room is oak. All stairs, catwalks and bedrooms have beautiful blond maple floors with area rugs spread throughout. The large palladium window and cathedral ceiling above the foyer allows plenty of light to shine on a two-story, central staircase, while framing views of the front lawn from the catwalk. There are five TVs, high speed Wi-Fi and all new appliances. There is plenty of parking along the circular driveway and enough room for a boat or an RV. The lawn area is approximately one acre with plenty of flat, wide open space. The back porch can be accessed from a handicap accessible ramp. It is quiet and peaceful in the absence of any traffic noise or light pollution. This is a great place for stargazing. Portland is less than 30 minutes away and Kennebunkport is just a 15 minute drive.

Awesome to have 5 king bedrooms (plus a queen). Nice location 5 minutes from the ocean. Recommend.
The house was perfect for our weekend away with cousins. There was plenty of room for 9 of us to be comfortable. The location was great as well. We couldn’t have asked for a better spot to stay. We would definitely consider returning in the future!
The house looked pristine online. When we arrived the outside of the house needed cleaning. It's a great, spacious house, but the general maintenance of wear and tear was sorely lacking. Some of the beds did not have mattress covers so when the sheets were removed at the end of out stay stains were found on some those mattresses. There were broken window shades, a torn chair and a torn shower curtain and a dirty cloth shower curtain. I will commend the owner on his quick response to the septic system backing up into the house. He had the plumber at the house almost instantly. He lives 2 hours away and came over and cleaned up the house while we were out for the day. Having 35 years experience with septic systems I think this system at least needs an evaluation by a septic company as something is surely wrong there. This house as great potential, but needs a lot of attention to detail. We had a great vacation, but concluded we would not rent this house again as it is not up to our standards.
House is lovely and spacious. Would definitely return!
The property owner Jeff was amazing! We enjoyed our stay and had plenty of space for us all. Loved the property and how private it was. Thank you for everything Jeff.
This is a nice, spacious house on a large private lot on a very quiet, dead-end road. There were 7 adults and 2 infants during our stay, the house had more than enough room for all of us, with room to spare. We never felt crowded here. The pool was a very welcome amenity, and the ping pong table provided several hours of fun. We very much enjoyed the nearby beach, Fortunes Rocks. Just a note that the prices have definitely increased at the beaches since the information currently provided at the house was printed. Jeff is a good host. Only complaints are that the floors were not very clean (no actual debris or anything, but walking around for a few hours and your feet would be just about black) and, the water was a little yellow the entire week we were there. These were relatively minor things for us . Besides that, everything here was great. We would definitely stay again.
This was the perfect house for us! We traveled from Ohio for our nephew's wedding, the 4 full baths were a blessing! The house is beautifully decorated and spacious. We loved sitting around the big kitchen table. Jeff was very easly reached and answered any questions.
Beautiful house, comfortable beds, plenty of space and sunlight in all rooms. Total gem of a place. Jeff was awesome and super easy to work with. Stayed with 12 women, everyone raved about the house and how awesome it was. Thank you!
We were a group of 9 adults and stayed for 2 nights over New Year's. The house is beautiful and had plenty of room for all of us to sit at the dining table and in the living room. We had fun playing games, ping pong and darts.
The kitchen was the absolute filthiest I’ve ever seen. The sponge, by the sink was nearly black with muck and grime, I wouldn’t have used it to clean up after my dog! The oven had not been cleaned in years and the broiler unit was hanging loose. The interior of the cabinets were soiled and had mouse droppings, again, not cleaned out properly in years. There was even a greasy foul pan in one of them. We were even greeted by a dead cockroach, what a bonus. Jeff offered a $500 refund , then refused to pay it, actually accused me of trying to get money out of him. If we hadn’t planned a private chef to come in, we’d have moved to a hotel. I have pictures to back all of this up, wish I could post them.
