Enchanting Home only moments from PRIVATE BEACH on Historic Gerrish Island.

PRIVATE BEACH only moments from this enchanting home, privately located on the
end of the road and on Gerrish Island in beautiful Kittery Point, Maine!

Just one hour and 15 minutes from downtown Boston, and yet the perfect quintessential Maine getaway!

Stay in this FABULOUS 5600 sq ft custom built home with marble & granite stonework, maple/cherry/red oak woodwork flooring, inspired by 19th century American Gothic, and be only moments from a PRIVATE BEACH and HIKING TRAILS. Divulge in the serenity of this Maine post and beam construction, giving the feel of a chalet.
Includes completely separate guest house connected by an enclosed walkway to the main house with a laundry area and mudroom, so multiple families can have privacy. Guest house's main floor includes 2 bedrooms, 1 bath with living room, kitchen and a beautifully constructed spiral staircase leading to the 2nd floor, a loft.
The main house has 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths. A large open concept living room & dining room, wood stove and a kitchen with a half bath on the main floor, 2 bedrooms on the 2nd floor (Ocean views) with a walk in shower & bath, and a walk out deck. Master suite is entire 3rd floor, with a wood burning fireplace, balconies, OCEAN VIEWS and full bath with shower/tub. All new memory foam mattresses throughout! GORGEOUS eat-in kitchen has stainless steel appliances with 2 refrigerators, dual Viking oven, 6 burner range & grill, and a pantry. Nicely furnished with complimentary retro stereo from yester-year set up in the living/dining area for listening to old records and playing games.
This home is equal distance between the historic towns of York, Maine and Portsmouth, NH, each is only about 5-6 miles away, and of course near the famous Kittery Outlets, one of many wonderful things to do! Deeded private access to a rocky beach facing the open Atlantic Ocean, only 300 yards away and with the most beautiful views, great for enjoying a picnic. Homestead ruins, from an old 17th century home including a granite lined well, are still located on the property, so bring your metal detector!

The property is extremely private, located at the end of the island road on over 6 acres. Great for walking and biking with many trails near by for hiking and cross country skiing! We are on the same island as the historic Fort Foster. Always voted one of the top beaches in New England and includes a playground and historical fort. Bike or drive to Fort Foster located on the other side of the island, or bike or walk to Crescent Beach, only 6/10 mile and less than a 10 minute walk through this wonderful neighborhood. This sandy extremely quiet beach is private to the neighborhood and connects to Seapoint Beach.

You may also drive to SeaPoint, about a 2 mile trip in the car, just off Gerrish Island.

Ocean views from all levels of the house. The second floor deck, where there is an outdoor bar and sitting area for your enjoyment of the ocean breeze and sounds of the crashing ocean only a few hundred yards from the house. Front porch includes an outdoor sitting area and sitting area, Also, there's an amazing 1600 sqft deck on the back of the house with an outdoor kitchen including a grill, stove top, fridge, bar and smoker! The rest of the deck includes a fire pit, Hot tub, dining table, sitting area, and Sauna! There's also a Beautiful English Garden in the side yard with sitting area.
