298 Main Street, Winter Harbor, ME 04693 (MLS# 1528242)

Right in the heart of this historic coastal village with its white spires, grand old homes by the sea, quaint shops, and one of the finest arts venues in the state sits this completely renovated 5-bedroom, 5-bath home on a corner lot. The lovely grounds contain, in addition to the home, a separate year-round building with bath that could be a GUEST COTTAGE, a garage, and even a true Scandinavian SAUNA with sod roof surrounded by private woods and garden with picnic area--a little piece of Finland! This historic home has been completely renovated and updated starting in 2012. Gorgeous old wide-plank pumpkin pine floors and original moldings exude comfort and grace. Tiled baths. TWO KITCHENS! With tin ceiling, bars, new stainless appliances, modern & well-appointed. A first-floor bedroom suite opens onto a private courtyard. One living room has a gas fireplace. The private balcony with propane fire pit off one of the second -floor bedrooms is great for relaxing to watch the world go by. An amazing feature: when you move through the house out to the back yard, you are surrounded by delicious PRIVACY...right in town. The sea is just across the road, so stroll along the sidewalk along Henry Cove for easy proximity to the cafes, restaurants, galleries, shops, studios, GOLF COURSE, yacht club, and year-round ARTS PROGRAMS of Schoodic Arts for All in delightful Winter Harbor. The house is presently a delightful bed-and-breakfast and could be continued as such. The cottage is set up as a pet grooming area. With ACADIA NATIONAL PARK's Schoodic Point just minutes down the road, this property has been mentioned in Yankee Magazine's Best of New England. Truly an apt description!
