Description


  • Sleeps: 8
  • Bedrooms: 4
  • Bathrooms: 3


LOCATION: Cape Elizabeth, on the Atlantic Ocean - Great Sandy Beaches Nearby
This beautiful oceanfront cottage overlooking Higgins Beach is located on the 2000 acre Sprague Family property founded in 1920 by Phineas Warren Sprague, who made his money in coal and oil. The land remains in the Sprague family for preservation purposes and to benefit the Sprague family. With miles of carriage trails and walking trails as well as several beaches, horse farms, and incredible views, there is much to explore on the parts of the property open to guests. All of the various homes on the property are still owned by Phineas's descendants, and most are used as summer vacation homes. The houses are all separated by considerable distance, so privacy is easily obtainable.

Just a short 15 minute drive from the bustling City of Portland, you'll find yourself winding down a road surrounded by fields and instantly feel at peace. Arriving at this completely updated beach cottage (renovated and upgraded over the spring of 2009), you'll be hard pressed to sit on the deck and watch the surfers over at Higgins Beach, or head out on your bike or by foot to see some of the incredible private beaches on the property after exploring the carriage trails.

This beautiful and typical Maine old cottage has the feelings of summers past, with the comfort of today. In addition to a deck that overlooks the bay, entering the cottage, you'll find a living room and dining area that share the same spectacular view. There are 3 full bathrooms on the main floor which contains all the living space but one bedroom that is located on the 2nd floor.

Off the traditional cottage kitchen, there is new bathroom with shower and a laundry room. The four bedrooms all have ocean views. The master suite features an en-suite claw foot tub/shower and queen sized bed. Another guest room has 2 twins, and the 3rd a full. Upstairs, two twins can be made into a king for the 4th bedroom.

This property is a perfect destination property for those looking to get away. It is also a great property for biking, walking, and swimming. However, if civilization and nightlife call, you can be down in the Old Port of Portland shopping or bar hopping within 15 minutes.

While there is a TV with DVD player for rainy days at the property, there is no cable/satellite tv service, but it does have high speed internet. This is a property for card games at night and family/friend intimacy after long fun days in the sun and at the beach.
