Experience one of the most extraordinary settings on the southern Maine coast on Gerrish Island. This uniquely private seaside contemporary boasts captivating views and nearly 200 feet of direct oceanfront and pebbled beach. The thoughtful design takes full advantage of magnificent water views from nearly every room and harmoniously blends with the home's natural surroundings. Upon entering the home, you are immediately struck by dramatic vaulted ceilings with wood beams, wide open living spaces, wood floors and an abundance of windows that embrace the ocean's crystal blue waters. French doors lead to the water side sunroom and seaside deck perfectly suited for al-fresco dining or an enchanting setting from which to host summer events. The gas fireplace sits prominently in the grand living room and the adjacent dining room which all take advantage of the magnificent vistas. Additionally, the level offers a U-shaped kitchen, a guest bedroom with stunning views, a laundry area and connecting full bath, an office and a sitting room. Wake up to the sights and sounds of the Atlantic from the second floor primary bedroom suite with spa-like bath, double vanity with quartz countertops, multiple closets and custom tiled shower. The finished lower level provides flexible space in addition to a full bath and storage. The property is further enhanced by a 1-car detached garage, shed generator, stone walls, rolling lawns, ornamental trees, mature perennials and magical paths to explore.
