Property Description
Splendid shingle-style New Englander situated in a mature enclave in the heart of coveted York Harbor provides a brilliant example of classic 19th century coastal cottage architecture enhanced with upscale 21st century year-round comforts and amenities. 'Gifford's Cottage' benefits from its naturally elevated location that provides an inherent privacy to the area while still offering walking distance to York Harbor Beach, Hartley Mason Reserve and Cliff Walk. Entry to the home is level. A tiled mudroom that connects to the extended year-round sunporch spanning the front of the home provides a bright, warm welcome with radiant heated flooring, shiplap, beadboard finish and custom lighting. You are greeted to the main living area by a spacious and relaxed living room with wood-burning granite fireplace and bluestone hearth. French doors open to a private entertainment deck overlooking the stone-terraced backyard with patio and fire pit. Fir floors throughout add elegance and warmth while providing continuity in design from the living room to the open concept Kitchen / Dining area. The Kitchen is a chef's treasure - from the farmers sink and tiled backsplash to the pendant lighting and retro style push-button switches, the entire area embodies the connection of old to new in every detail. Anchored by a large soapstone breakfast island the open & bright area features custom cabinetry, full separate pantry and high-end appliances that include a hand-crafted Lacanche Range, Wolf wall oven and Subzero refrigerator. A rear sun-drenched porch adjoining the kitchen offers additional relaxation space, hobby room, home office or a nearby spot where you can hear the kettle boil. Situated on a lush .24-acre parcel that offers both sun & shade year-round, seasonal partial harbor views and plenty of private parking including a built-in EV charging station.
