About this property

Serene waterfront home w/ a dock, large deck & amazing views!

Picture yourself at High View, a stunning waterfront home perched on the edge of Quahog Bay in Harpswell. From your morning coffee on the sweeping deck, you'll witness pastel skies over the islands, lobster buoys bobbing, and kayaks gliding offshore. With your own spacious dock, you'll have direct access to the water for fishing, paddling or simply immersing in the unmistakable magic of Maine's working coastline. Outside, discover a charming, fenced patio — ideal for a morning stretch or evening quiet time.

Inside, thoughtful design meets comfort. On the first floor, you'll find a fully equipped kitchen that flows into a bright breakfast nook, then into a sun-filled sunroom perfect for remote work or quiet contemplation. The living and dining area, anchored by sliding glass doors, opens to the deck so the outside becomes part of the everyday. Entertainment options abound (games, Roku TV, DVD) and every detail—from furnishings to layout—speaks to easy-luxury vacation living. The upstairs wing offers three restful sleeping spaces: a master suite with king bed and en suite, a queen bedroom, and a loft with another queen tucked behind privacy drapes and screen. Quiet ceiling-fan comfort completes each room.

Location matters and High View delivers. In Harpswell, you can explore the dramatic cliffs of the Giant's Stairs Trail, wander the shoreline of Bailey Island, or savor lobster at the wharf-side seafood joints. You're also minutes from scenic hikes, salt-water swims and island adventures. Take a short drive to Brunswick and Cook's Corner with their galleries, restaurants, boutiques and golf courses.Or, venture a bit further to visit iconic LL Bean and the outlet stores in Freeport, ME or visit the Maine State Music Theatre, located at Bowdoin College, where your favorite Broadway plays are performed by talented local actors and musicians. Whether you desire serenity or exploration, High View makes both effortless.

Whether you're planning a family retreat, a couple's escape or an adventure-filled week of sea and shore, this house invites you to drop your bags, inhale the salt air, and let time slow down. Reserve your week of coastal magic today!

Yellow house on Damriscotta Lake

The location of this house was ideal for our family, located right on the water with a private dock. Our kids love to fish and were able to do so early in the morning and late into the evening because the water was right there. Also brought our kayaks and spent several relaxing hours on the peaceful water. The house has plenty of towels, linens and kitchen items to make your stay feel like home. The bedroom upstairs was very nice with a great view of the water.
