48 Sand Cove Rd, South Bristol, ME, 04568

Set atop a granite bluff overlooking the entrance to Christmas Cove and the Damariscotta River this home has spectacular and expansive southerly views. It is located on a very private, peaceful and limited access road of long time residents and classic cottages of an earlier era. Many of the homes on Sand Cove Road have been passed down through several generations which makes this a rare offering. The wraparound deck is the perfect place to watch boats sailing by during the day and to follow ship's lights passing by as they navigate under starlit skies near the islands and ledges around the mouth of the Damariscotta River and Christmas Cove. On clear days you can see Heron, Fisherman's and Damariscove Island. There is a daylight basement with room enough to store all of your kayaks, lifejackets, fishing rods and bicycles. If you need more finished room for guests there is plenty of space for that too. The living room has great views through large windows as well as a large exposed brick fireplace to keep you warm on cool summer or fall nights. The open floor plan and deck is a great space for entertaining lots of guests. You can't build a home this close to the water anymore and because this home has never been expanded there is the possibility of a 30% expansion with town approval. There are few spots with views like this in locations like this that reach the market and fewer still that have the possibilities that come with this home.
