A house on the water, literally. This newly built home on Southport Island is constructed on pilings over an extremely calm deep water cove. Two stacked sets of French doors face the water with amazing views of the water. A gangway leads down to a 12'x16' float with 8-10 ft of water at low tide, and open ocean is less than 5 minutes away by boat. The hard parts are done: new pilings, roof, and white composite trim. Inside, over 3,000 sq ft is framed and open, ready for electrical, plumbing, and your design. The second floor is planned for cathedral ceilings. Robinson's Wharf is next door for lobster and weekend live music, the Southport General Store is around the corner, and Hendricks Head Beach is just beyond. Enjoy waterfront living with low property taxes and be less than 10 minutes from Hannaford, Boothbay Harbor's shops and restaurants, golf, Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, and more. With a boat at your dock, the rest of the coast is close too. The dock stays in the water year-round, since the cove typically does not freeze over. It's also a rare opportunity for a one-of-a-kind short term rental in an area with very strong seasonal demand. Homes like this aren't built anymore, and this one is ready for whoever finishes it. Sold as-is.
