Tucked away on 2.66 beautifully landscaped acres midway between Camden and Rockport villages, this custom shingle-style home offers a rare combination of privacy, updated design, and the convenience of in-town living. Surrounded by open lawn, mature trees, and lush gardens, the property is filled with exceptional natural light and enjoys seasonal ocean views -- a peaceful retreat just a short walk from the shops, galleries, and restaurants of both world-class harbors.
Thoughtfully renovated with an emphasis on quality and comfort, the home features a chef's kitchen with radiant-heated floors, a walk-in pantry, an induction range, stainless appliances, a large center island, and quartz countertops.
Both bathrooms have been fully renovated, and the primary suite bathroom and new spacious mudroom include in-floor radiant heat. The vaulted ceiling living room anchors the home with an efficient wood stove and glass doors that open to a large deck overlooking the extensive grounds. New custom closets throughout the home provide abundant storage, while a heated, insulated studio attached to the barn offers flexibility for creative pursuits or a home office.
Outside, the grounds are a private oasis: an expanded driveway, natural stone entry steps, a dramatic stone retaining wall framed by climbing hydrangeas, a large fenced kitchen garden with raised beds, sweeping lawns, and carefully curated tree work that enhances both sunlight and ocean vistas. Unwind in the custom six-person Western Red Cedar sauna, entertain amid the tranquil surroundings, or simply enjoy the serenity of this remarkable Midcoast setting.
