Modern cottage beautifully set on Wilson Cove with stunning westerly views

This modern Maine cottage, beautifully set with stunning westerly views of Wilson Cove and the islands of Middle Bay, is the perfect oceanside retreat for the whole family! You will love the updated interior that still maintains the quaint comfort of a classic cottage on the coast of Maine.

At Frostfish Cove, you will spend your days basking in the sun on the spacious wrap-around deck, watching the kids play in the yard, and walking down the steps to the pebbly shoreline to swim, search for sea glass and other ocean gems, and launching your kayak to explore the coast of Harpswell. After a long day of seaside adventures, you'll love cooking your favorite meal in the fully stocked kitchen and enjoying dinner and your favorite beverage while watching the sunset over the horizon. When the sun goes down, the whole family can retreat to their bedrooms, with one playroom/bedroom on the first floor with a twin pull out couch, and the other bedrooms on the second floor, one with a twin bed overlooking the ocean, another with a queen bed with large windows to enjoy the views, another bedroom with a queen bed, and a bedroom with a full bed. Also on the second floor is a spacious full bathroom with a shower/tub combo and a double vanity.

Frostfish Cove is conveniently located just 10 minutes from Maine Street, Brunswick, offering a variety of local restaurants and shops, easy access to coastal RT 1 to explore Freeport and Portland areas, and many Bowdoin College activities. The cottage is only 15 minutes from the Dolphin Marina and Restaurant (the perfect place to enjoy fresh, local seafood while you enjoy the stunning views of Casco Bay) and the many restaurants and shops of the Harpswell Islands (including Sundrenched, Cook's Lobster & Ale House, Salt Cod Cafe and Land's End Gift Shop). For those who wish to explore the outdoors in Harpswell, Frostfish Cove is close to a few hiking trails, including the "Wilson's Cove" and "Cliff" trails.

Private,serene ocean views

Very comfortable home with open kitchen dining area and two other living type rooms. Bedrooms were comfortable and good sized. Beautiful ocean facing deck. Many stairs to gangway and float would be challenging for folks with disability or very young kids. It was fine for us, two active 70 yo. 4 aged 30 something and one infant. We brought our kayaks and took many paddles watching seals, herons, and ospreys. Loved kayaking in the often calm waters, and watching spectacular sunsets while grilling on the deck.
