Ideally situated just a few hundred yards from Willard Beach in one of Maine's most sought-after seaside communities, this beautifully maintained home offers more than just great bones — it has soul. Thoughtfully updated and full of character, it blends timeless coastal charm with modern comforts in an exceptional setting. The spacious, renovated kitchen features a gorgeous tile backsplash and a generous center island, well-suited for gatherings and everyday living. A formal dining area provides space for special occasions, while a cozy sitting area near the front windows captures a picturesque view straight down the street to the beach. Just beyond, the living room is anchored by a granite hearth fireplace, creating a warm and inviting focal point. Enjoy the ease of one-level living with a first-floor bedroom and a beautifully appointed full bath, complete with custom tile work, double vanities, and a glass-enclosed shower. Upstairs, two sunlit bedrooms and a second full bath offer added comfort and privacy, along with a nostalgic ''luggage closet'' for extra storage. The daylight lower level provides flexible space for hobbies, storage, or future expansion. Outside, the backyard is both functional and charming, featuring a picture-perfect shed ideal for a reading nook, creative studio, or play space. With the beach just moments away—and local favorites like Scratch Bakery, Willard Scoops, and David's 388 nearby—this offering is the perfect blend of relaxed coastal living and refined design.
