Home Overlooking Damariscotta River -free kayaking

Splendid westerly views and gorgeous sunsets to be enjoyed by family and friends from this tasteful Cape's spacious deck, living and dining rooms, sunroom and kitchen. Enjoy the wonderful ambiance of this easy-living floor plan with first-floor bedroom, bath, laundry area, living room with fireplace and built-ins, large dining area with wide window seat and dining table with room for 10 people. Upstairs there are two more bedrooms ( three twins and one queen) and a bathroom with a shower (no tub). The property has incredible perennial gardens with a path that leads down to the waterfront. At the waterfront, there is an Island owned by the Damariscotta River Association, which can be walked to during low tide. The island is a great place to swim during high tide. This property has a basement flat with its independent entrance that is occupied by the property manager. The property manager works during the day, and you will not see him unless you need his assistance. We have three kayaks and one canoe which are free to use during your stay. You can make arrangements with our property manager (former US coastguard employee) if you want to use them. The property is ideally positioned to explore the coast of Maine via the river, visit Pemaquid lighthouse just a few miles down the road, spend time in the picturesque town of Damariscotta (1.6 miles) or explore further afield by visiting Boothbay Harbor ( 25 minute drive), Bath (20 minute drive) or Camden (40 minute drive). Damariscotta was recently voted the #1 spot to visit in Country Living's article "40 American Towns You Haven't Heard of but Should Visit ASAP". This property is set back from a busy road 129/130, and when the windows are open you can hear the traffic - you don't notice it after some time - so complete silence is not something you will get at this property. This house has a split AC in the living room that cools the downstairs along with the portable AC in the TV room. We have a window AC in the upstairs queen bedroom and a large portable AC in the triple room. When it gets hot, this house is well equipped to handle the heat. Recently, we have renovated both of our bathrooms.
