3 BR Farmhouse Overlooking Water in Castine

The beautifully restored 210 year old Dyer-Wescott house, recently included in the National Register of Historic Places, is located just across the British Canal from downtown Castine. The 3 bedroom, 2 bath home sits atop Castine’s highest hill & basks in sunlight from dawn til dusk. The beach, golf club & merchants district next to the Maine Maritime Academy are just a few minutes down Castine Road. Blue Hill is 20 min away, Belfast is 40 min & Acadia National Park is 1hr north near Bar Harbor. The Space: The home is on three levels. The Kitchen, Sunroom, Library / Music Room, Dining Room and Parlor are at the entry. The Kitchen is a chef's dream with equipment to cook any gourmet meal. A small breakfast nook is the perfect place to enjoy coffee in the morning while admiring the person who got up early to make everyone breakfast. It’s also a great workspace with an unbeatable view. The Sunroom is light and bright with a comfy white cotton sofa, desk, printer, monitor and flat screen w/ AppleTV. The small sofa folds out into a twin bed. The room can be closed off for zoom/work calls. The Parlor, located just off the kitchen, is a great space to nap on the big sofa, gather for cocktails or play a game of Twister. The Library / Music Room is set in tones of relaxing greens, with Biedermeier chairs to loose yourself in a book or just stare out the windows during the evening sunset and down the acres of backyard to the water beyond. The upright piano is tuned and ready for play with sheet music in the bench. The Dining room is a calming formal setting at night with dimmable lighting, candles, and place settings. It can also serve as a large work space during the day and able to be closed off for work privacy. Upstairs are the three bedrooms. Two with Queen beds share a large bathroom w/ ample storage, shower and vanity. Each room has a floor to ceiling mirror, dimmable recessed lighting and either a small closet or clothes dresser. Facing the backyard & water, the master bedroom has a King bed, mini fridge, dresser and en suite bath with shower, double vanities and storage. The ground floor apartment w/ separate entrance is occupied by the on-site property manager.
