Just 16 minutes from downtown Rockland and 20 minutes from Owls Head & Marshall Point Lighthouses, this stunning waterfront home awaits its next stewards. The keen eyes of its current stewards combined with well respected architect John Hansen and builder Richard Lane created the plans for the 2016 major renovation of a 1970 cottage, taken down to the studs, then rebuilt and expanded with two additions. This home was thoughtfully designed around the perennial landscaping and broad views of Mill Cove to Seal Harbor & Wheeler Bay just beyond the Rackliff Island causeway. Owners, family and friends won't want to leave the exceptional great room with simultaneous views of the fireplace, subtle waterfront activity, delightful variety of birds, and warm winter sunsets. The great room opens to an expansive, dine-in, dream kitchen with elegant butler's pantry, timeless white cabinets with granite counters, Wolf, dual wall oven & convection-steam oven, Wolf gas range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, & Bosch dishwasher. Luxurious coffee station with deep drawer for accessories & supplies. Access the waterfront deck and back yard from the kitchen, great room and elegant primary bedroom suite with spa-inspired bath with spacious linen cabinets. Your guests of all ages will enjoy the two guest bedrooms, full bath and laundry room located to the right of the beautiful, front entryway with an additional entrance off the laundry room. Primary bedroom suite is located to the left. Working from home? Your private office is at the top of the stairs with ocean & sky views plus a very deep, walk-in attic/closet for easy access to items you need more frequently. Full, unfinished, and remarkably dry basement has plenty of room for your kayaks and so much more....Take your sea kayaks down the stone steps to the beach for a wonderful day of paddling on sheltered Seal Harbor or very close to shore around Rackliff Island to Rackliff Bay. Showings are available immediately by appointment.
