Welcome to our charming oceanfront retreat, where time slows down and memories are made. Perched directly on the pristine rocky Maine coastline, this family home, the main core of which was originally a Victorian New England carriage barn with characteristic cupola on top, offers breath-taking ocean views from almost every room. Guests describe the extremely spacious high-ceilinged living room, with dining table for ten under a picture window overlooking nothing but rocks and ocean, as feeling like you aboard a ship. While the house carries a sense of history and nostalgia, it exudes warmth and comfort that makes you feel right at home. Four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and two separate living areas and vast outside decks, provide gracious accommodation for up to eight guests. Step inside to find cozy, well-loved interiors that echo the laughter and stories of generations past. The décor radiates a timeless charm, with vintage touches that add character and a sense of place. A spacious kitchen with commercial stove is fully-equipped for cooking up a storm, should that be your passion. If your interest is more in the direction of dining out, there are dozens of choices within a short drive to suit every palate and budget. Uber is available in the area, as are local taxi services. Imagine waking up to the sound of waves gently breaking against the rocky shore, and enjoying your morning coffee on the spacious decks which surround the house on three sides, as you watch the sun rise over the Atlantic. The Rachel Carson Nature Reserve is a ten minute walk away – a wonderful place for birdwatching and exploring the rocky shores. This home is perfect for relaxation and soaking in the beauty of our natural surroundings and the great outdoors. Whether you're unwinding with a good book, exploring the four nearby private beaches (each within ten minutes’ walk from the house), or simply savoring the uninterrupted ocean views, this is a place where you can truly escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. When you’re ready for a bit of civilization, fifteen minutes’ drive northeast up the coast is the town of Biddeford, which has emerged in the last few years as an exciting dining destination, and twenty-five minutes southwest is world famous Kennebunkport, with its charming galleries, shops and a wide range of restaurants for all tastes. Forty minutes north is Portland, which offers even more dining options and the charming and historic Old Port neighborhood, filled with delightful galleries, cafes and shops. World famous Freeport, home of LL Bean and dozens of high end outlet stores, is an hour’s drive away. Come and experience the simple pleasures of coastal living in a home that is undeniably full of heart and soul, but still close to amenities galore. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Smart TV - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Change of bedsheets (on request) - Change of towels on request - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a hospital - Near an outlet shopping centre - Near the ocean ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Whale watching nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Bed sheets changed on request - Garden - Local artist showcase - Locally-owned and organised tours and activities - Property does not allow children - Recycling - Towels (changed on request) - Unit size: 2,500 square feet ## Similar properties ![Sun-loungers, beach towels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/75000000/74310000/74302000/74301950/6f2afec1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Summer Sale.
