Description
Perched above Passamaquoddy Bay, The Kingsbury House has been a beloved summer residence for over a hundred years. This turnkey, three-bedroom home has several unique features including a large brick and stone fireplace with a bread oven. Family names and loving words are written into the bricks. A library with a woodstove, a full kitchen and full bath round out the main floor. A large deck spans the side of the house offering a stunning view of glorious sunrises as well as a welcoming outdoor space for entertaining. Take in vistas of Passamaquoddy Bay, Navy Island, The Algonquin Hotel in St. Andrews-by-the-Sea, Deer Island, and mainland New Brunswick, Canada. This delightful property includes a separate artist or wellness studio for creativity and a lovely breezeway connects a woodworking shop (23' x 19') to the house. Plus there are two detached garages, a 3-car garage (32'x 16') and a field garage (20' x 10') with an additional shed for lawn equipment. No matter how you choose to spend your leisure time, there is a place for you here. The yard celebrates a variety of pink peonies and wild roses that adorn the grounds, and there is a path to a rock beach that brings the sea into reach. Panning out, the property is tucked in by a cedar post fence. The property is adjacent to Loring Cove Preserve. 13-acres with the Maine Coast Heritage Trust. The Kingsbury House is located in Perry on the 45th Parallel halfway between the North Pole and the Equator and between the border town of Calais and island arts community of Eastport. There are lakes, streams, and the Atlantic Ocean with hiking, biking and kayaking opportunities with fresh and saltwater public access all within a 20-minutes. Neither words nor photos can express the totality of this beautiful property. It awaits new stewards to care for it as lovingly as those before them. Broker owned.
