Property Description
Rare Waterfront Opportunity on Orr's Island! Enjoy 240 feet of privately owned waterfront on picturesque Lowell's Cove with sweeping views to the Atlantic Ocean and a permitted piling dock. This exceptional property offers the boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, and coastal lifestyle that make Harpswell one of Maine's most treasured destinations. Set on 0.45 acres, this classic 1904 Maine home features five bedrooms, generous living spaces, original woodwork, period details, and large windows framing the ever-changing beauty of the cove. Relax on the enclosed porch while watching Maine's remarkable tides transform the shoreline, revealing expansive mudflats before returning to fill the cove with the rhythm and beauty that define life on the coast. The gently sloping lawn leads to the shoreline and permitted dock, providing easy access to the water. Larger boats can be moored nearby, while the protected cove is ideal for kayaking, paddleboarding, swimming, and simply enjoying the peaceful waterfront setting. Whether you envision restoring this cherished family home, creating a seasonal retreat, or building your dream waterfront residence, the possibilities are endless. Built in 1904 by the seller's great-grandfather, this home has remained in the same family for generations. One longtime owner was a respected local lobsterman who worked these waters, while his wife faithfully served the Town of Harpswell as its Town Clerk for 35 years. Their love for this special place is reflected throughout the property. Just minutes from beaches, boat launches, restaurants, and scenic trails, this is a rare opportunity to become the next steward of a remarkable piece of Maine's coast.
