Welcome to The Seabird Sanctuary in Cape Elizabeth, where refined design meets the quiet beauty of the coast. Set on protected land with sweeping marsh views stretching toward Higgins Beach, this exceptional property offers a rare balance of privacy, luxury, and connection to nature, with more than 300 species of birds recorded in the surrounding sanctuary. The home features approximately 3,842 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, including four spacious bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths, with additional potential to expand. A 690-square-foot space above the garage is ideal for a future accessory unit, while the expansive 1,823-square-foot basement with 9.5-foot ceilings offers endless possibilities for a wellness retreat, fitness studio, wine cellar, theater, or additional living space. Perfectly positioned just minutes from Portland and its celebrated restaurants, galleries, boutiques, marinas, and vibrant arts scene, Seabird Sanctuary offers the very best of southern Maine living. Paddle board through the tidal marshes to Higgins Beach, spend afternoons boating on Casco Bay, and enjoy evenings in the Old Port--all from a home that embodies sophisticated coastal living immersed in conservation, nature, and the unmistakable Maine lifestyle.
