This impeccably maintained gem beautifully blends classic beach charm with modern updates, bathed in an abundance of natural light that streams through expansive windows, highlighting the waterfront setting. Thoughtful and one-of-a-kind details from a renovation by Chase Construction combine the elegance of built-in cabinetry, dining banquette seating, hardwood floors, and a three-story custom staircase with the necessary precautions of ensuring the home is protected for all of Maine's seasons. The well-designed kitchen features a Sub-Zero refrigerator, freezer drawers, a Thermador gas range, and quartz countertops. Step through the living room doors onto a wraparound porch that leads to brand-new decks, a private beachfront terrace and direct access to the sandy beach. A marble-appointed full bath showcases a relaxing Kohler air tub and a convenient stackable washer and dryer, adding both luxury and practicality to the first floor. The home offers four distinct bedrooms, two on the second floor and two on the third, including a primary suite that overlooks the beach and a third floor bunkroom.
