About this home
Imagine waking to the Atlantic stretching beyond your windows, sunlight moving across the water and Maine's historic lighthouses standing along the horizon. At Staples Point, each day unfolds against an extraordinary coastal backdrop—from quiet mornings filled with salt air to evenings beside the fire as waves break against the granite shoreline. Beyond the gates, sweeping lawns meet the rugged coast, revealing a residence designed to make the most of this unforgettable setting. Designed by Joe Waltman and built by Wright-Ryan, the seven-bedroom, 7,371-square-foot home combines timeless shingle architecture with exceptional craftsmanship. Expansive windows frame the ocean, while custom built-ins and detailed millwork bring warmth to the generous living spaces. A first-floor primary suite, steam sauna overlooking the sea, separate carriage house and four garage spaces complete the estate. Recognized as Architectural Digest's Property of the Month through Sotheby's International Realty, Staples Point offers both architectural distinction and the comfort of a welcoming coastal home. Here, the view carries centuries of history. Five lighthouses—Portland Head Light, the East and West towers of Two Lights, Ram Island Ledge Light and Halfway Rock Light—connect the property to Maine's maritime heritage. Portland Head Light dates to 1791, while nearby Two Lights inspired Edward Hopper's celebrated 1929 painting, The Lighthouse at Two Lights. That painting was featured on a U.S. postage stamp issued in 1970 to commemorate Maine's 150th anniversary of statehood. A scene recognized in American art and carried across the country becomes part of everyday life at Staples Point. Just 20 minutes from Portland's Old Port and private aviation, Staples Point places an irreplaceable piece of Maine's coast within easy reach. Exceptional architecture. Extraordinary privacy. A storied setting. A property you acquire once, treasure for a lifetime and pass down for generations.
