Literally 120 Steps from the front door to Willard Beach soft sand, this is the quintessential Maine bungalow, tucked into one of South Portland's most beloved walkable communities. Featuring an architectural shingled roof only 4 years old and newer windows throughout, this coastal cottage offers one floor living on a quiet dead-end street that opens right onto the beach. The property backs up to forever woods. This is the home that captures everything people move to Maine for; salt air, tight community, and a pace of life that feels like a deep exhale.
The cottage opens beautifully to an open concept design. The living room, dining room, and kitchen flow together beneath soaring vaulted ceilings, anchored by rich hardwood floors that run the full length of the space. A deck and slider extend the living space outdoors, opening to a spacious fenced in backyard ready for vegetable and flower gardens. Natural light moves through all day long. Complete with two bedrooms and two full bathrooms, it's effortless flow is perfect for a quiet morning or a room full of people after a perfect beach day.
Tucked on the property, the detached bunkhouse is a rare bonus. It's complete with electric, lighting, ceiling fan, Empire propane heat, and refrigerator. A guest retreat, creative studio, or simply the most coveted bonus space in the neighborhood.
Willard Beach is just steps away. Views of Fort Gorges on Hogs Island Ledge, Peaks Island, and Cushing Island stretch across Casco Bay. Watch ferries and lobster boats while buoys clang offshore. Tidal pools delight at low tide. Walk north to Spring Point Ledge Lighthouse, in operation since 1897. Walk south to Fisherman's Point where Portland Head Light comes into full view and Cape Elizabeth less than a mile away.
Willard Square is your neighborhood delight -- ice cream at Willard Scoops, a morning pastry at Scratch Bakehouse, while kids play at the playground. This is coastal living without compromise.
