Welcome to Windswept, a custom home with high end, European finishes that is very rarely found in Maine! Every inch of this climate neutral home has been meticulously designed by a renowned local builder to maximize style and comfort while enjoying truly magical views and private beach access within the hidden gem of the East Blue Hill Community. Located less than a tenth of a mile to Curtis Cove, come visit the private beach while enjoying a picnic or a lobster bake!
Upon arriving at Windswept, you will be greeted by a large, circular driveway with space for several cars. The outdoor space is immediately noticeable - the outdoor furniture and lawn is available for your private use!
Upon entering you will be greeted by a large, open concept living room, dining room and kitchen. The main floor has many seating options, space to enjoy communally or rooms to take some space and relax! On the main floor there is a gorgeous sun room with cushions to lay out and read a book, practice yoga or meditate. Also on this floor you'll find two of the bedrooms, one and a half bathrooms, laundry room and large office if work calls! Upstairs you'll find the other three bedrooms as well as two bathrooms. The lofted hallway overlooks the living room and provides more views of the cove across the street.
Large picture windows from both floors offer stunning views and soft breezes from the stunning Maine coastline which lies just a short walk from your door. Manicured gardens and a large lawn frame the views and invite you to enjoy your morning coffee from the sun room, lunch from the patio, and sunset from the main suite.
The home sits approximately 45 minutes from Acadia National park. Point yourself in the opposite direction to enjoy fewer crowds, and seasonal visitors that have been coming here annually for generations. Nearby Blue Hill (10 minutes) is a quaint Maine town clinging to the waters edge. The smell of Bucklyn Coffee, an incredible local coffee roaster, slinging coffees and local doughnuts through a small window on your way into town is the start of your welcome. The perfectly curated Blue Hill Wine Shop is poised to help you make the perfect pairing, and restaurants offering local fare make your stay taste as good as it looks.
