Entering 79 Head Tide Rd in Alna, the views from the living room will take your breath away. What you can't hear from the photos are the roaring rapids from the Sheepscot River. The property is a jewel set in the desirable Mid-Coast area. This four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home features numerous updates, including a full-house generator, heat pumps, a newly renovated bathroom, a propane fireplace, and a beautiful, updated kitchen. Some properties exude charm, and 79 Head Tide Rd is one of them. Conveniently located near the famous Alna Store, which the New York Times named one of the best 50 restaurants in the US. In addition, there is a swimming hole where locals gather to swim and float down the river. This quintessential Maine Cape is not to be missed.
