Pristine! Bright! Open! Located only 4 houses from the beach, this newly renovated, year-round cottage/house has 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths - and has been upgraded throughout. Open concept main floor, center island in the Chefs kitchen, a light filled front porch designed with 3 sets of floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors, split AC/heat units installed upstairs and down for comfort thru all 4 seasons, dimmer controlled recessed lighting, and an encapsulated bone-dry crawl space. The primary bedroom is an enormous 'penthouse' suite with ensuite and has 3 walls of windows as well as a French door to access a private upper deck. Imagine the endless light and the soothing sounds of the ocean that pour into this space. Another bonus: the 2-car heated garage that can be used as a year-round workshop and/or indoor parking (parking inside and out for 6-8 cars). The property grounds are manicured and immaculate, and the house has vinyl siding for minimum maintenance. As for Drakes Island - it's a hidden gem. Known for its extra-long sandy beach and welcoming community. The Drakes Island Community Centre offers tennis, pickleball, 2 playgrounds, and a Community House with kids (and grandkids) summer camps and endless activities. Drakes Island is sandwiched between popular local towns such as Kennebunkport and Ogunquit, or for those looking to explore further afield, Drakes is halfway between Portland to the north and Portsmouth to the south. Whether for year-round living or seasonal getaways, this cottage/house will provide you with endless joy and great happiness. Here's to the best of coastal Maine living.
