Peaks Island: Spectacular Oceanside Retreat (#40122)

Portland, Maine
 

Description of the Portland vacation home rental

Spectacular Oceanside location. Breathtaking views of ocean, light houses, nearby islands, ships and open ocean. This beautiful three level, 4 bed room, 2.5 bath Victorian Shingled Style home has all you’ll need for a wonderful and memorable vacation.

Ist level has the guest/family bedrooms, bath, laundry, family room & covered porch.

2nd level has open living, dining & a fantastic well appointed kitchen and a deck with all the ocean views you can imagine.

3rd level is the master suite. Custom bathroom w/ double sinks, soaking tub, shower & laundry. There’s a turret sitting room with views in every direction! From the king size bed you can lay and watch the moon glimmer on the ocean and the sound of surf will lull you to sleep.

The setting is equally as spectacular as the house. Incredible ocean views all in front & in back, it looks out over a freshwater pond, nature trails & natural seaside vegetation. There’s a spacious lawn for playing and gathering and the property is but a 15 min walk to the ferry & village or 5 min. bike ride. Surely one of the finest properties on the Island.

At $3,500.00 per week, you won’t be disappointed.
