Description

Set high above the Spurwink River, this classic Colonial offers an unexpectedly dramatic tidal river experience that must be seen in person to fully appreciate. From the exterior, the home presents as a timeless New England property with a welcoming farmer's porch and traditional form. Inside, the residence has been thoughtfully transformed with a light-filled aesthetic inspired by clean contemporary design. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame ever-changing tidal views, marshlands, and abundant wildlife, creating a setting that feels immersive and completely private. The main level is thoughtfully arranged with well-scaled rooms that flow beautifully together, opening to a sun filled kitchen and dining area at the back with direct connection to a screened porch overlooking the water. Upstairs features flexible gathering spaces, a rooftop deck, a primary suite with adjacent laundry, additional bedrooms, and versatile flex rooms. The partially finished lower level includes a traditional sauna. Outside, the property spans 3.5 acres with approximately 1,000 feet of tidal frontage, along with an attached three car garage, patio, and a detached waterfront garage or workshop with future potential. Just minutes to Cape Elizabeth's beaches and a short drive to Portland, this home offers rare privacy, sweeping views, and close proximity to everything the coast has to offer.
