About this home
Some places are meant to be discovered. Others are meant to inspire. Escape to a world of coastal beauty, privacy & creative possibility in Kittery Point, Maine. Perched above the tidal waters of Brave Boat Harbor & bordering the Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge, this extraordinary retreat offers the kind of peace that's increasingly difficult to find, yet is just minutes from the restaurants, galleries & charm of Kittery & Portsmouth. Once the home & creative sanctuary of beloved Maine artist Tim Beavis, this distinctive contemporary is as individual as the landscape surrounding it. Thoughtful architecture, natural light, unexpected textures & expansive views create an atmosphere that invites you to slow down & stay awhile. The 2-bedroom, 3-bath home features open-concept living, a welcoming fireplace & an expansive deck overlooking the ever-changing marsh, water & wildlife. A partially finished lower level offers exciting possibilities for additional living or creative space, while a separate artist's studio & gallery with garage provides a remarkable opportunity for work, inspiration or personal retreat. Potential guest accommodations or ADU conversion are subject to approvals. Spend your mornings with coffee overlooking the water, launch a kayak when the tide is right, explore nearby beaches or enjoy an evening in Portsmouth before returning to your own private sanctuary. Convenient access to I-95 makes weekend escapes & extended stays effortless. Whether you're seeking a second home, an artist's haven or a year-round coastal lifestyle, this is a rare opportunity to own something truly different. A little wild, wonderfully peaceful & unmistakably Maine. PRE-INSPECTED!
