About this property

Classic New England Retreat in the Heart of Boothbay Harbor

  • Discover refined coastal living just a two-minute walk from the water in this thoughtfully restored New England colonial. Blending historic architectural details—including antique radiators and classic penny mosaic tile baths—with modern comforts including high-speed internet and fully fenced in back yard. This bright and cheery home offers an elegant and relaxing home base for any season.

    Inside, the home is designed for comfort and ease. The well-appointed kitchen features thoughtful touches for home-cooked meals, while the living area offers a polished setting to unwind with a wet bar, streaming-ready TV, and Fidium high-speed internet. Mini-split systems provide quiet, efficient heating and cooling year-round, and a private washer and dryer add everyday convenience.

    Outdoor spaces invite relaxation, from mornings in Adirondack chairs on the deck to evenings enjoying s’mores around the fire pit. A fenced yard provides a private, secure space for children or one well-behaved dog (up to 50 lbs).

    Spend your days exploring Boothbay Harbor’s working waterfront, boating along the coast, and dining at acclaimed local favorites. Enjoy the convenience of walking to Atlantic Edge for fresh lobster or the Boothbay Lobster Wharf for lunch or dinner. The home is also ideally situated near the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens (including the renowned Gardens Aglow winter display), Boothbay Harbor Country Club, and Hendricks Head Beach.
