1242 Coastal Road

At the top of Town Landing Road in Brooksville, this saltwater-view, three-season cottage is a classic Blue Hill peninsula retreat. Built in the 1950s it's been deemed ''Bryn-Teg'' for decades. Meaning ''Beautiful Hill'' in Gaelic/Irish, the two-bedroom, two full-bath cottage with original wooden floors, paneling and a clawfoot tub is as one-of-a-kind as its name. Picture window and rear deck views toward Castine, and the cottage is within a mile of Tinder Hearth's wood-fire bakery and pizza ovens (NY Times top-50 restaurants ''most excited about right now'') in one direction, and the shoreline trails of Holbrook Island Sanctuary are just down the road in the other.

On a large corner lot (1.04 acres) that blooms with wildflowers, lilies and lilacs, the scenic Coastal Road location offers endless possibilities. One of Maine's prettiest coves for boating and swimming is just a short walk down the hill. Enjoy morning coffee or a sunset glass of wine on the waterside deck, and see constellations above the treetops--on the Fourth of July, watch for Castine's fireworks show.

With all-new plumbing, refrigerator, dishwasher and clothes washer, this charmer is being sold with complete, ready-to-use furnishings and contents--including an O'Day Daysailer boat with full rigging and sails. Favorite stops within minutes nearby (several reachable by land or water) include Buck's Harbor Market, LDI Lobster Dock & Dine, the WoodenBoat School, Northern Bay Market, Walker Pond Landing (for a freshwater dip), Aragosta at Goose Cove (the chef's a James Beard award nominee), the Stonington Opera House, Blue Hill Co-Op and the wonderful Blue Hill Wine Shop. More natural beauty and hikes at Acadia National Park are within an hour's drive.

Don't miss this special turn-key property. Nothing else like it on the market!
