ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This charming, cozy, right-sized Cape built in 1998 is on one of two parcels included with this property. The house parcel is 2.2 acres, and the 'buffer' parcel of land is another 1.3, for 3.5 acres total, greater than the average lot in Hunters Landing. The land parcel could be developed with another single family residence, or left in its current state of serene Enchanted Maine Forest. It's a five minute walk to the neighborhood landing where you could keep your boat on a deep water mooring in the Damariscotta. Head up river to Schooner Landing, or down to Coveside. Incredible South Bristol taxes. The property is just down the road from the locally beloved Walpole Barn, a world class wine & housewares store. Hannaford in Damariscotta is only 8 minutes away. Christmas Cove is 15 minutes down the road. This home is in a neighborhood of million dollar properties, reminding us of that great age old advice- ''Buy the least expensive house in the most expensive neighborhood you can afford.''

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Set atop a granite bluff overlooking the entrance to Christmas Cove and the Damariscotta River this home has spectacular and expansive southerly views. It is located on a very private, peaceful and limited access road of long time residents and classic cottages of an earlier era. Many of the homes on Sand Cove Road have been passed down through several generations which makes this a rare offering. The wraparound deck is the perfect place to watch boats sailing by during the day and to follow ship's lights passing by as they navigate under starlit skies near the islands and ledges around the mouth of the Damariscotta River and Christmas Cove. On clear days you can see Heron, Fisherman's and Damariscove Island. There is a daylight basement with room enough to store all of your kayaks, lifejackets, fishing rods and bicycles. If you need more finished room for guests there is plenty of space for that too. The living room has great views through large windows as well as a large exposed brick fireplace to keep you warm on cool summer or fall nights. The open floor plan and deck is a great space for entertaining lots of guests. You can't build a home this close to the water anymore and because this home has never been expanded there is the possibility of a 30% expansion with town approval. There are few spots with views like this in locations like this that reach the market and fewer still that have the possibilities that come with this home.
