Nestled on 9 private acres along Merrymeeting Bay, this classic Maine Saltbox Cape offers 1,500 feet of waterfront with breathtaking water views and access to the Atlantic Ocean beyond. This spacious 4-bedroom, 3-bath home combines timeless New England charm with modern comfort and quality 2x6 construction.
The sun-filled main living area features an open-concept design with large bay windows that capture stunning sunrise views and flood the home with natural light throughout the day. A striking stone chimney with a gas stove creates a warm and inviting centerpiece in the living room, while the open kitchen is ideal for entertaining with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a center island. Move to the formal dining room for more intimate occasions.
The daylight walkout basement provides additional living or recreation space with direct outdoor access and full bath. Enjoy the beauty of the waterfront from two expansive decks overlooking the river and beautifully landscaped grounds. Interior finishes include wood floors, tile, and carpet throughout.
Additional features include a 2-car garage, nearby boat launch for easy water access, and endless opportunities for boating, fishing, kayaking, and coastal recreation right from your doorstep. Close to in-town amenities. A rare opportunity to own a private waterfront retreat in Midcoast Maine.
