This year-round, fully insulated three bedroom oceanfront cottage is filled with sunlight and water views through the many windows. Sit on the expansive full-length deck and enjoy the salty breezes as you gaze out over Penobscot Bay -- you can't build this close to the water anymore!!! A full renovation retained all the charm of the original vintage features including a stone wood-burning fireplace, beamed ceilings and polished wood floors. There is a bedroom and a full bath with a clawfoot tub and a separate shower on the first floor. On the second floor, there is a spacious primary bedroom with an adjacent home office, a second bedroom and a half bathroom in the hall. A recently built two-car garage with a staircase to an unfinished second level was thoughtfully designed with a shed dormer facing the water that could be additional guest space, a large private office or exercise room. A Summer Laundry House with outdoor shower complete this Maine Cottage compound. Mature trees shade the spacious lawn for dogs and kids to romp on and there is a sturdy staircase to access the rocky beach to explore. Just minutes to Belfast's Farmer's Market and Co-op, shops, restaurants, harborfront boardwalk & marina. Most furniture conveys. Artwork does not. Seller will provide a list of exclusions.
