NEW Tranquil Tides - 2-bedroom home with privacy, AC and tidal waterfront access

Waterfront Comfort on the Tidal Shores of Harpswell, Maine

Relax and unwind in this charming one-floor, 2-bedroom coastal home set on the quiet tidal shores of Harpswell. Surrounded by privacy and expansive yard, this property offers the perfect balance of comfort, convenience, and classic Maine waterfront living.

The open-concept kitchen, living, and dining area is bright and welcoming, with beautiful water views that set the tone for slow mornings and peaceful evenings. The primary bedroom looks directly out over the tidal shore, while the second bedroom also features a comfortable queen-size bed — ideal for couples, friends, or family traveling together.

The full bathroom includes a walk-in shower and a full-size washer and dryer, making longer stays easy and comfortable. Step outside to the backyard patio, where you can grill, dine, or simply enjoy the changing tides and coastal air.

Guests are welcome to use the attached one-car garage — a thoughtful convenience during summer rain showers or late-evening returns after a day of exploring the Harpswell islands and nearby coast.

Whether you’re here to kayak, explore tide pools, enjoy fresh seafood, or simply relax by the water, this home provides a peaceful and well-appointed base for your Maine getaway.

The house was a great location we enjoyed watching the birds and a deer run around the property. Restaurants close by and a short drive over to Brunswick or Freeport.
