Description

Wanakiwin blends the best of classic shingle-style architectural features with the contemporary needs of a modern family, resulting in a very sophisticated style with a casual elegance. The gracious, efficient residence easily accommodates a large extended family with staff or a quiet oceanfront respite from a busy city. Views from every room are of the dramatic oceanfront with pink granite ledges, the Eastern Way and several offshore islands, or the lush gardens. Yachts and busy lobster boats ply the waters daily providing nonstop scenic activity. The year-round, traditional design home features the best of all worlds, with covered or open porches for any weather, large or intimate living and dining rooms for entertaining, and ten bedrooms, some of which are staff quarters, but all with pleasing and dramatic ocean views. Magnificent gardens by award winning designers provide color and quiet sitting areas with both mossy woodland or ocean views with pink granite ledge backdrops. Superior craftsmanship and quality are visible at every turn, and maintained to the highest standards. Wanakiwin maintains a patina of excellence; there are many thoughtful additions, such beadboard ceilings, wainscoting with Douglas fir, cherry or ash, wood burning fireplaces, double doors to bedrooms for privacy with wooden louvered panels for ventilation, and several private bedroom porches. Located on six private woodland acres with 650' of dramatic pink granite oceanfront, Wanakiwin provides one of the most spectacular settings along the coast of Maine, and particularly in this coveted neighborhood. Mossy woodland paths meander through the property with colorful perennial gardens throughout, providing total privacy, with a long, dedicated driveway to the residence and garages. Wanakiwin exudes an unparalleled cachet and quiet elegance.
