About this home
Be steps from Higgins Beach. Create a lifetime of memories! Some beach cottages are all about the location. Others capture the charm and character that make Higgins Beach so special. This one brings them together. Just one house back from the beach, this classic coastal cottage offers ocean views, the sound of the surf and the kind of easygoing beach lifestyle that keeps people coming back year after year. Step inside and you'll find everything that makes a traditional Higgins Beach cottage feel like home. Warm fir floors, painted wood walls and sun-filled gathering spaces create a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere where sandy feet and long summer days are simply part of the experience. The living spaces flow comfortably together, while a classic brick fireplace adds another layer of cottage character. Three bedrooms, one bath and single-level living keep things simple, leaving more time for what brought you here in the first place. And the beach? It's practically your backyard. Start the morning with coffee and ocean views, spend the afternoon with your toes in the sand, and return for an outdoor shower before settling in for dinner and another beautiful Maine evening. With ample off-street parking, there's room for guests to join in the fun—a particularly welcome feature in this beloved beach neighborhood. Sold fully furnished and with a strong, established rental history, the cottage offers flexibility to enjoy it as your own coastal getaway, continue its rental tradition, or combine the best of both. Everything is in place to start making memories from day one. Because at Higgins Beach, it's never just about the house. It's about the morning tides, the familiar faces, the traditions that bring loved ones together and the feeling of having your very own place by the sea.
