This property is just a few minutes' drive from Dock Square in Kennebunkport. This Beachside town, which offers specialty shops, restaurants, bars, fishing and boating charters, trails to bike or walk, and the picturesque beaches that sweep our Maine coastline for miles. Kennebunkport's most picturesque beaches are Goose Rocks Beach, where the sand is as fine as baking flour. Other beaches just across the town line in Kennebunk, Mother's Beach, have rock formations that create tidal pools for exploring tiny sea creatures. Mother's Beach is every child's favorite because of the playground next to the Beach. Also close are Middle Beach and Gooch's Beach, which offer the best fine sand for building contest-worthy sandcastles, surf for the most fantastic boogie board experiences, and a horizon for the most amazing sunrises and sunsets. Our town is a quaint fisherman's village that has developed over the years into a desirable destination for visitors and summer residents.
Guests have full access to the property; locked closets are intended to remain locked for the owner's privacy.
**NEW LISTING**
Welcome to Wildes Woodland Retreat — a refined five-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom coastal home set on a private wooded lot located in Cape Porpoise, just minutes from Dock Square and the area’s most beautiful beaches.
Designed for gathering in comfort and style, the heart of the home is a breathtaking vaulted living room filled with natural light. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the trees, while a statement fireplace creates the perfect setting for cozy evenings after a day on the water.

Designed for both celebration and everyday moments, this kitchen effortlessly hosts everything from holiday dinners to casual weekend breakfasts. With five beautifully appointed bedrooms and 3.5 baths, including a thoughtfully designed studio suite situated above the garage for added privacy and quiet, yet still part of the home, the property comfortably accommodates extended families or multiple families traveling together.
