Sparkling and spectacular, this fully south-facing waterfront home sits within a few miles of downtown Belfast, in a surprisingly secluded neighborhood. Owned, renovated, and furnished by classical musicians, it is private, cozy, spacious, connected to nature, and artistically inspiring. Elegantly furnished and equipped for up to 7 occupants, with room for 3 cars in the driveway. Future plans involved converting garage into a sea-view piano studio, but the possibilities are endless. There is one bedroom & bathroom on the first floor, and two bedrooms and bathroom on second floor.....with dramatic water views from each (even bathroom!). Watch the sun rise and set from the large, breezy deck with an unobstructed 180-degree panoramic view of the ocean. Outdoor wicker furnishings make it perfect for gatherings, large or intimate - to marvel at the bay, watch birds and seals, gaze at stars, philosophize, recite poetry, and share stories......all accompanied by the musical lapping of waves. The covered wrap-around porch has classic Maine rocking chairs, if you prefer a little shelter while taking in the breathtaking view. To top it off, public beach access is only a minute's walk away. The full walk-out basement enjoys daylight and has great potential for expanded uses. The house has proven to be a tremendous short-term rental property, with revenue exceeding $50K annually for May-October alone. Recent storms will require shoreline repair, but surveys and reports are underway, and costs for the full repair (as per professional estimate) will be fully paid by the Seller.
