North End Cottage, located in the coveted Turtle Head subdivision, is a charming chalet-style waterfront retreat set on 4.31+/- mostly wooded acres. Flowering gardens, vegetable beds, and stone paths leading to the covered front porch create a warm and welcoming first impression. Built in 2000, the home features large windows with sweeping views over East Penobscot Bay and offers convenient one-level living with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and laundry on the main floor. The open floor plan includes a spacious chef's kitchen, dining area, and living room, all thoughtfully positioned to take advantage of the water views. A spiral staircase leads to a loft that can serve as an additional living room or office with elevated views of the bay. This year-round home is heated by radiant floors and a wood stove. Outside, a waterside deck with a hot tub provides the perfect place to relax and enjoy the coastal setting. The property includes a two-car garage with a workshop and well-appointed guest quarters above, complete with a living room, kitchen, bunk room, and full bath. An additional fenced garden and garden shed add to the property's appeal. With stair access to 311+/- feet of waterfront consisting of a beautiful stone beach, this property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy privacy, comfort, and the very best of Maine waterfront living. Located just a short distance from the nature trails of Turtle Head Conservation Land. The majority of the furnishings can be negotiated. The hot tub has a new cover.
