Property Description

Located just steps away from one of Southern Maine's most beautiful beaches, Drakes Island offers the warmth of a small beach community with the peacefulness of coastal living. ''Saccarappa,'' an original Drakes Island cottage built in1906 meaning ''the falling toward the rising sun'', has been thoughtfully renovated and is now on the market, ready for new owners to make their mark. This unique coastal find offers 2,221 square feet of living space with 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, separate living and family rooms with 2 fireplaces, an inviting dining area, and a third-floor loft. The brand-new kitchen boasts quartz countertops, all new cabinetry, an oversized island, hidden office area, and modern appliances including a beverage refrigerator. It's an ideal home for gatherings, simple relaxation, or quiet retreats. The house blends modern updates including six mini-split units for heating and cooling with classic character-rich wood floors, a welcoming front porch, a spacious back patio, and an oversized shed surrounded by mature gardens and landscaping. ''Saccarappa'' is move-in ready with many furnishings included. Take a bike ride up to the Community House for a summertime packed with activities: tennis, basketball, pickleball, a 5K road race, Fourth of July parade, children's day camps and craft nights. Become part of this charming community!
