The Coastal Kittery Retreat - cozy, quiet, close to beaches and restaurants

This charming 3-bedroom home is located on a quiet, dead-end street in Kittery, Maine. With Spruce Creek to our left and the Piscataqua River to our right, you'll smell the salt in the air and feel the breeze off the water as seagulls fly overhead. Both Portsmouth, NH and the beaches in York are just 10 minutes away, so you can relax on the sand during the day and then hit the town at night!

This beautiful house, built in 1911, has been meticulously restored to its original splendor with many modern updates. You'll love the original, winding wood staircase and pine board floors, and you'll appreciate the lightning fast internet for work or (hopefully) play, the completely redesigned and upgraded kitchen, and the open-concept dining room and living room with room for everyone at the handcrafted, wooden table.

Upstairs, enjoy three bedrooms each with a queen sized bed and each with easy access to the shared full bathroom with tub/shower. All bedrooms include a closet, and one bedroom includes a desk with a printer and scanner.

Downstairs, the beautiful kitchen contains everything you will need to prepare full meals. (Though we think you might prefer the top-rated restaurants nearby instead!) The kitchen boasts 3 seats at the island, a large refrigerator and freezer, an electric stove and double oven, as well as microwave, dishwasher, and Keurig coffee machine. Off the kitchen is a washer and dryer nook with a powder room beyond the nook. In the open living room/dining room, there are plenty of board games and books for rainy days, a Roku on the living room TV, and seats on the sectional couch, the rocking chair, and at the large dining table.

Off the kitchen, relax on the large, wrap-around, light-filled sunporch with table, chairs, and a futon that can be used for extra sleep space in warm weather. Like many Mainers, we don't have AC, but we do have a powerful ceiling fan in each bedroom as well as on the sunporch. The living room stays nice and cool throughout the year though we also have two portable fans that can be used as needed.

Come to relax with everything you could want and need within a 10 minute drive!

Other things to note
The owners live in an apartment on the property. We are a quiet couple and will respect your space and privacy! The backyard has been separated with a privacy fence, and you will find a picnic table with umbrella and lounge chairs on your side of the backyard. Enjoy!
