Description
Tucked away at the end of a private dirt road and surrounded by miles of walking trails and conservation land, this meticulously crafted coastal cottage offers luxury off-grid living in one of Downeast Maine's most breathtaking settings. Set on 10.4+/- private surveyed acres with approximately 400'+/- of frontage on Cobscook Bay, this custom-built retreat blends thoughtful craftsmanship, privacy, and natural beauty. Known for its dramatic tides, rich marine life, birdwatching, fishing, and rugged coastal scenery, Cobscook Bay provides an ever-changing landscape right outside your door. Enjoy your own private cove with a pebble beach that transforms to sand as the tide recedes - perfect for beachcombing, wildlife watching, and soaking in the views. Positioned atop a knoll to capture ocean breezes and stunning views, yet only steps from the shoreline, the cottage is beautifully landscaped and cradled by forest. A welcoming farmer's porch invites quiet mornings and peaceful evenings. Inside, rich oak woodwork, expansive windows, and custom finishes reflect exceptional craftsmanship throughout. The open-concept first floor offers a seamless flow between the kitchen, dining, and living areas, highlighted by granite countertops and abundant natural light. A full bathroom and spacious laundry/utility room complete the first floor. Upstairs, enjoy a cozy reading nook or office space and a spacious bedroom with captivating ocean and treetop views plus clever storage. Though currently a one-bedroom, one-bath home, there is room to expand with a septic design for two bedrooms. Fully off-grid with owned solar and backup generator, the home offers modern self-sufficiency. The roof and solar system were both newly installed in Spring 2026. Complete with a storage shed, pristine natural surroundings, and an unmatched sense of peace and privacy, this exceptional coastal retreat is approximately 20 minutes to Eastport and 30 minutes to Calais.
