About this home
This is the Maine beach cottage you hope still exists! Just steps from the sand at Gooch's Beach, this utterly charming New England Cape sits on a corner lot in one of Kennebunk's most beloved beach neighborhoods. From the moment you step inside, pine floors, shiplap walls and sun-filled rooms evoke everything there is to love about summers by the sea--casual, comfortable and wonderfully timeless. At the heart of the cottage, a cozy living room fireplace is flanked by built-in bookshelves ready to hold favorite beach reads, seashells collected along the shore and years of treasured KBIA camp creations. The large eat-in kitchen and adjoining dining area invite everyone to gather, with views overlooking a generous deck and fenced yard framed by seagrass for natural privacy--the perfect backdrop for lobster dinners, summer cocktails and evenings spent outside after a day at the beach. Five bedrooms and two full baths provide plenty of room for family and friends, including a delightful primary bedroom with its own sitting area and lovely ocean views--a quiet reminder of just how close you are to the water. A fabulous detached two-car garage is another unexpected bonus, with generous storage above and plenty of room for all the essentials of life by the beach--surfboards, beach chairs, bikes and more--while still leaving space to actually park your cars. And the location is simply exceptional. Stroll to Gooch's Beach, with tennis, golf and Kennebunkport's famed Dock Square a bike ride away. Lovingly enjoy this quintessential Maine cottage exactly as it is, preserving all the character that makes it so special, or imagine the possibilities for a thoughtful renovation that makes it entirely your own. Some houses are simply near the beach. This one feels like summer in Maine. SELLER TO REVIEW OFFERS ON MONDAY, AUGUST 24TH AT NOON....
