Property Description
Perched at the ''Edge of the Sea'' on the very southern tip of Southport, this lovely home enjoys a rare opportunity for spectacular open ocean views and a protected dock and anchorage. The islands immediately offshore serve as a breakwater from the brunt of the ocean.Prevailing southwest breezes provide natural cooling in the summer. This point sits on the east west path of boaters as they cruise the jagged Maine coast and provide entertainment. The house was rebuilt and reconfigured in the 1990's around an earlier structure to take in the watery world it overlooks. Ceilings are vaulted and light pours in. The major living areas are spacious and orient along the southern exposure. On the first floor doors open onto the deck and screened porch. On the second floor the primary bedroom enjoys a bird's eye view from another deck. In addition to the half acre and dock that are privately owned this home is part of the ''Newagen Colony'' which anchors around the historic ''Newagen Seaside Inn''. Thus it shares use of the 20 acres that the Inn sits on. Amenities offered by the Inn are the tennis courts, heated fresh water pool, dock, Pub and restaurant, and gaming areas. Since the early 1800's famous people have discovered peace and serenity in this unique spot. Notable among them is Rachel Carson who found awe and inspiration from the abundance of sea life and birds and butterflies that passed through on their way north and south. Cape Island provided great solace for Margaret Hamilton best known for her role as the Wicked Witch of the West in The Wizard of Oz. While nearby Boothbay Harbor environs offers the bustle of small town summer life with shops, restaurants, golf, Botanical Gardens, and tourist boats, Southport is a step back in time and a slower pace with an old fashioned sense of community.
