Expertly redesigned and completely rebuilt, this stunning contemporary home is located on Cottage St.—a coveted seaside neighborhood that's within walking distance of everything downtown Belfast has to offer. Sited on a ½-acre lot with partial views of Penobscot Bay from nearly every room, this light-filled 3-BR, 3-bathroom home features a modern open-concept floor plan that combines coastal elegance with energy efficient comfort. The spacious main level offers easy one-floor living and many amenities including a lovely primary BR with a vaulted ceiling, an adjoining full bath, a walk-in closet, and A/C, and a sunlit living area with abundant windows and French doors that open onto a generously sized deck overlooking a 20' x 40' in-ground swimming pool. The custom kitchen is equipped with quartz countertops and a 9-foot island, premium stainless-steel appliances, double ovens, and a built-in wet bar/microwave station. The main floor also features a dining area, laundry facilities, a gracious front door foyer, a mudroom accessed from the attached 2-car garage, and a wonderful west-facing covered porch. Upstairs you'll find two delightful bedrooms, enormous walk-in closets, and a spa-like bathroom with a soaking tub and an over-sized custom tile shower. The basement level offers a large, versatile bonus room with walk-out access to the pool and fenced-in back yard. The structural and systems renovations/upgrades to this remarkable home are extensive. A partial list includes new energy-efficient windows and exterior doors, a new high-efficiency heating and hot water system, new plumbing, new wood siding, upgraded gutters for both the house and garage, and a whole-house electrical update. The in-ground pool has a new salt-based chlorine system. Just a 2-minute walk from gentle public shore access, this is a luxurious home in a captivating coastal location.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
