Compelling views of Castine Harbor and the iconic State of Maine vessel, from this south-facing, contemporary cottage with 655' of frontage on the Bagaduce River.. This hillside haven welcomes you from the moment you approach the home with two classic buildings near the road, one was a working forge until recent years and peaceful approach bordered by mature meadow. A covered porch leads you into the main living area of the home, providing an open kitchen, living, dining area with incredible light and scenic water views from every window, thoughtful built-ins, a wood stove for those chilly evenings, a convenient half bath (with laundry facilities) and direct access to a waterside deck. A primary bedroom on the south side of the home also enjoys direct deck access. A second bedroom and a full bath are located on the east side of the home. The home sits on a full, daylight basement, a garage with storage and work space and lots of green space to garden and enjoy. The second story of the home is ready for the new owner to complete the living space, where you will also enjoy spectacular water views!
