Located on a private road, this idyllic three bedroom, two bath house features views of the ocean, fishing boats, Crescent Beach, and Richmond Island.

Crescent Beach State Park is just a few minutes stroll away, via a private path through nature preserve. The path opens a good distance from the park's main entrance, so you'll be sure to find the privacy you desire. At Crescent Beach, you'll find soft sand, a gentle tide, and rocky coast line at both ends. You'll also find walking/jogging trails along the shore and through the woods in both directions. Popular activities include swimming, kayaking, fishing, and wildlife viewing. Kayak rentals are available right on the beach, at the Snack Bar.

If you like, drive or bike along Scarborough Marsh toward Higgins Beach (5.0 mi. away), Scarborough Beach (6.1 mi.), or Ferry Beach (7.0 mi.). Explore the rocky coast of Two Lights State Park (1.7 mi.), or picnic next to Portland Headlight at Fort Williams (6 mi.). Kayaking at nearby Scarborough marsh is also popular, and rentals are available on site.

You can also visit nearby farms to select locally harvested seafood and locally grown produce, then barbecue on the deck while watching sail boats and other watercraft pass by. Or, leave the dinner prep to others: 4 star dining and other fine establishments are right around the corner (0.2-0.5 mi.).

And of course, Portland's Old Port and Downtown await just 12-15 minutes away. Named by Frommer's Travel Guides as one of twelve "surprising, thriving and emerging world travel destinations," Portland offers great food, pubs, shops, music, art, scenic cruises, and more!
