First time offered! This 4 season gem on beautiful Long Island in Casco Bay, just off the shores of Portland, Maine is just what you’ve been waiting for! Constructed by a high-end Portland area builder, this comfortable home has served as both a family retreat and summer season rental property with a stellar rental history. This 3 level home has the main living level situated on the 3rd floor which has an open floor plan with a seasonal view of the Atlantic Ocean and Harbor de Grace. The large sun deck off the main level is perfect for enjoying your morning coffee and for grilling and even preparing delicious Maine lobsters. A wraparound farmer’s porch at the ground level front entrance is a perfect place to sit in the shade in a rocking chair and read or just enjoy the peace and quiet of the serene Long Island environment. The second floor boasts three bedrooms, including a master suite and also a separate guest bath with full laundry. The first floor offers a comfortable entry foyer, a large 4th bedroom, and a door which directly enters the one-car 16ft x 24ft drive-under garage with 12ft high ceiling (perfect for storage, parking, and even hanging canoes and kayaks), a utility sink with counter space, built in shelves for storage and tools, and even a half bath. Beautiful Long Island, Maine is the perfect solution for those who want to escape the hustle and bustle of big city living and yet still be a short ferry ride away from Maine’s most populous city, Portland which is ever-increasingly becoming one of the world’s most desired destinations, particularly for foodies because of its many highly rated restaurants. Long Island also has one of the most beautiful beaches that you will ever find, South Beach. Affectionately known as “Sandy Beach” to generations of full-time and seasonal islanders, on a perfect summer day you would swear that you are on a beach somewhere in the Caribbean. Long Island also provides homeowners the benefit of low property taxes. In fact, Long Island’s 1993 secession from Portland was, in large part, a revolt against over-taxation and under-representation and lack of services. The town now provides its residents with efficiently administered services and yet low and stable tax rates. This lovely colonial reproduction style home is offered as-is, or the builder/owner will be happy to price changes, upgrades, and finishing appointments according to a buyers wants, needs, and desires.
