Description

DRAKES ISLAND - Set back from the road under a stand of mature pines that gave the cottage its name, Pine Cottage has been in the same family since the 1930's. Just moments from the sandy shores of Drakes Island Beach, this inviting home captures the essence of Maine living with a bright front porch and sunroom, welcoming outdoor spaces, and easy access to the area's natural beauty. The home includes 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, and an oversized, surveyed lot with room for lawn games and expansion. Pine Cottage lives large with an open concept first floor plan, including a dining room that has hosted four generations of the same family. Built in 1900, the cottage is believed to be one of the original homes on Drakes Island, and at one point, served as the community house for the 1920's island colony. The Drakes Island Improvement Association offers recreational facilities including clubhouse, classes, day camp and tennis. Membership is optional at 200 per year. This charming coastal retreat delivers an exceptional location near beaches, nature preserves, local restaurants, and all that Wells and the Southern Maine coast provides. Enjoy morning walks by the ocean, relaxing afternoons on the deck, and breathtaking sunsets in one of Maine's most sought-after beach communities. A rare opportunity to own a piece of the Maine coast in a premier Wells location.
