274 Shore Rd, Northport, ME 04849
Situated in the historic Temple Heights area of Northport, 274 Shore Road is a classic waterfront estate set on 0.47 acres, offering breathtaking views over Penobscot Bay and towards Islesboro. This two-story Victorian residence, constructed in 1901, features a charming porch that extends along the seaside, complete with gingerbread trims and culminates in covered gazebos on both levels — perfect for al fresco living during summer while enjoying the captivating vistas. Inside, the main level boasts a cozy living room adorned with wood paneling and a charming wood-burning fireplace, seamlessly flowing into a window-rich dining room and a functional kitchen. The upper floor includes a warm and inviting landing that can function as an office or den, alongside two bright bedrooms, each equipped with private en-suite bathrooms. The larger bedroom offers an open, airy ambiance, enhanced by a cathedral ceiling and sliding glass doors that open onto the deck.
Located just a short distance from the house, a gambrel-style barn offers ample storage or workshop space on the ground floor. The barn’s upper level features beautifully finished pine paneling and lovely water views, currently utilized as a bunkroom, but it could easily be transformed into a studio or office space. The property boasts lush landscaping with a manicured lawn, mature trees, and well-established perennial gardens, embellished with unique stonework. The waterfront is both charming and accessible, with wooden steps that lead down to a sandy pebble beach, ideal for beach walks and summer bonfire gatherings during low tide.
