Welcome to Crockett's Beach - a classic Maine Pebble beach at the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. Sit back and relax at this light filled contemporary home with frontage on an inlet just inside the beach. The house is designed for pure enjoyment with a floor plan that allows for big groups and intimate conversations simultaneously. 5 Bedrooms are distributed nicely for family and guests - a wing with 2 bedrooms and a family room upstairs can be closed off as a ''get-away'' area while others gather downstairs. The cooks' kitchen is at the heart of it all, with custom cabinetry and stone counters and a lovely view of the sea. Lots of storage in the kitchen, while extras can be housed in the walk-in pantry that doubles as a first-floor laundry. Easy access to the covered porch and the open deck makes al-fresco dining a must. Enjoy coffee on the deck while you watch the sun rise, or see the surf crash along the shoal off the beach as the tide comes and goes. The house is oriented to the water with large windows that frame the view and capture the light - no matter what the weather, the ever changing sea will enchant you. At the edge of the inlet sits the ''Boathouse.'' Once a boat builder's workshop, it has been transformed into a destination place for a picnic lunch, a place to hide away with a good book, or to enjoy drinks on the wrap around deck, or perhaps even a bunk-house for the young at heart. The large, open yard provides space for gardening and games and has a tool shed for storing the necessities. Launch your kayaks at any time from the beach and at high tide you can paddle right to your door. So close to Rockland with its shops, restaurants, and galleries, yet you feel so far away in this peaceful location.
