Charming cottage-style home on eight peaceful acres, just a few minutes' drive from the bustling twin villages of Damariscotta and Newcastle in one direction and Pemaquid Beach in the other. Built in 1961, this comfortable two-bedroom home is move-in ready and has been enjoyed as a home for many years. With its classic character and wonderful stone fireplace, it offers an inviting place to settle in and enjoy the Maine lifestyle. The house is surrounded by mostly wooded acreage, with a small pond adding to the peaceful setting. The primary bedroom, with attached study, opens onto a private deck overlooking the pond--a lovely spot to enjoy morning coffee, read, or simply take in the natural surroundings. The second bedroom offers unusual flexibility: use it as a comfortable bedroom, or as a craft room or an exceptionally large walk-in closet/dressing room adjacent to the primary bedroom. Three decks--at the front and back of the house and off the primary bedroom--provide plenty of space for relaxing, outdoor dining, and entertaining family and friends. The six-acre property also offers an intriguing possibility for the future; perhaps you have always dreamed of building a home of your own in a private wooded setting. The existing cottage might provide a comfortable place to live while you explore the possibility of building farther back on the property. Whether used as a year-round home, a Maine getaway, or a place to live while imagining what might come next, this is a special opportunity to enjoy privacy and natural beauty while remaining close to the villages, Pemaquid Beach, and the coast.
