Charming Drakes Island Cottage - Steps from the Beach. Welcome to this classic Maine cottage, a beloved seasonal retreat located just a short walk from the stunning sandy beach of Drakes Island. Dating back to the 1910s, this hidden gem has been part of the island's rich history for over a century. Offering 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and an additional office or guest room upstairs, there's plenty of space to gather and unwind. The main level features a spacious eat-in kitchen, charming knotty pine dining and living rooms, and a sunroom that spans the full length of the home—perfect for relaxing after a day at the beach. Out back, a newly constructed bunkroom provides extra space for guests, while the fenced-in yard and covered back deck create a private oasis for entertaining. The inviting front porch adds even more space to enjoy the coastal breeze.
Lovingly maintained by the same family for over 50 years, this special home is ready to welcome its next chapter. As part of the Drakes Island Improvement Association, you'll enjoy access to tennis, pickleball, basketball courts, two playgrounds, and a children's day camp offering a variety of summer activities. Ideally situated between Kennebunkport and Ogunquit, you'll have shopping, dining, and local attractions just minutes away.
