Property Description
Welcome to the Honeymoon Cottage! This sweet 1940s gambrel single family home has been completely renovated 10 years ago and sits on over 2+ acres just outside of historic Castine village. Offering 3-4 bedrooms, this home has been beautifully maintained and expertly managed by its owners in a way that belies the fact that it has also been a very successful rental in it's recent history. Well loved by it's VRBO summer guests over the years, most return in subsequent years to re-experience the Honeymoon Cottage's charm as well as proximity to the village's amenities. The home's layout and room flow lend themselves for use as a perfect family home, retirement home (offering 1st floor bedroom), or investment property. A 4th bedroom (below grade) benefits from a separate entrance and would alternately make a convenient home office. A new deck with composite decking next to an enclosed porch allows for three season enjoyment above the backyard patio. A beautiful spot to enjoy all that Castine has to offer, with the village close by -- golf, boating, public beach, shops and restaurants, plus just under an hour to beautiful Acadia National Park
