Sweeping Ocean Views from Three Suites, Private Swimming Cove and Dock
Gather your family and friends for an authentic Maine vacation to remember. This gorgeous country home, filled with art, books, and games, sits on a very private 1,000+ feet of dramatic ocean frontage, surrounded by fields and forest. Three spacious suites, all with water views, provide the flexibility to accommodate an extended family or up to three couples. Our guests tell us they love the private spaces combined with large, open spaces for being together.
Sip morning coffee on a master bedroom balcony overlooking a quiet cove, lunch on a deck with a view to the Casco Bay Islands, enjoy evening cocktails on the screened-in porch, and gather around a firepit in the woods after your lobster dinner. Prepare your meals in the well-appointed kitchen with organic foods grown at Wolfe’s Neck Center for Agriculture & the Environment, just minutes down the road. Walk down the driveway to your private entrance to Wolfe’s Neck Woods State Park, with its five miles of oceanfront and wooded nature trails. Our guests also tell us they love the quiet, while just minutes from restaurants and shopping.
Ready to explore farther afield? Launch your kayak, for rent nearby, and explore the rocky coastline in waters protected by nearby islands while watching for bald eagles, seals and great blue heron. It’s an easy paddle to the charming village of South Freeport where you can enjoy a seaside lunch of lobsters and clams. Return to shore and take a refreshing dip off the spacious dock.
Enjoy shopping? Just a short drive into town you’ll find spectacular shopping in Freeport’s 200+ shops and L.L. Bean’s famous flagship store (it never closes!). Portland’s Museum of Art, fine restaurants, and charming Old Port shops are only a half-hour away.
INSIDE THE HOUSE:
The expansive, sun-drenched first floor features post-and-beam design, a stone fireplace in the sunken living room, puzzle and reading nooks, and a music room with piano - all with sweeping ocean views. The dining area with seating for ten opens to the well-appointed kitchen with bar and breakfast nook, so the cooks can be in on the party. Step up to the media room with 50” flat screen TV, fireplace, and comfortable seating for that rainy-day movie, or settle at the card table for a board game. The house is full of books and art.
GROUNDS:
The grounds that surround the house provide lawns for croquet, trails through a patch of woods on the water, and several gardens including one surrounding a small stone patio on the sea with a chaise for quiet reverie or a good book. A hammock by the cove offers the same. Croquet set, ladderball and cornhole lawn games provided, as well as a selection of toys for young children. Enjoy a true Maine experience: have a campfire in oceanfront fire pit overlooking the bay.
THREE PRIVATE SUITES:
The house offers separate three suites of bedrooms and bath, perfect for three couples who want privacy, or for a family and guests. There are two cribs and single beds for children.
