Steps From Crescent Beach, Minutes From Portland's Old Port

3 bed, 2 bath Cape Elizabeth home sleeps 8



House and yard. Yard is fully fenced
Aerial view of the area.
Living/dining room.
Located on a quiet, private road, this idyllic 3 bedroom, 2 bath house features fantastic views of the Atlantic Ocean and Richmond Island. The property is ideally located to provide easy access to some of greater-Portland's most picturesque natural settings, as well as its aptly lauded dining, music, art, and other cultural offerings.

Crescent Beach State Park, a year round destination for outdoor enthusiasts, is just a 2-3 minute stroll away, via a private path. The path opens a good distance from the main entrance, so you'll be sure to find the privacy you desire. At Crescent Beach, you will find Kettle Cove State Park to your left (no admission fee), a pocket red sand beach to your right, and walking/jogging trails along the shore and through the woods in both directions. Popular activities include swimming, kayaking, fishing, and wildlife viewing. In the winter months, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing are also popular.

If you like, bike along Scarborough Marsh toward Higgins Beach (5.0 mi. away), Scarborough Beach (6.1 mi.), or Ferry Beach (7.0 mi.). Explore the rocky coast of Two Lights State Park (1.7 mi.), or picnic next to Portland Headlight at Fort Williams (6 mi.).

Visit nearby farms to select locally harvested seafood and locally grown produce, then barbecue on the deck while watching sail boats and other watercraft pass by. Or, leave the dinner prep to others: 4 star dining and other fine establishments are right around the corner (0.2-0.5 mi.).

And of course, Portland's Old Port awaits just twelve minutes away. Named by Frommer's Travel Guides as one of twelve 'surprising, thriving and emerging world travel destinations,' Portland offers great food, pubs, shops, music, art, scenic cruises, and more!
