Discover an island treasure on Peaks Island! A hop from the ferry yet tucked away for peace and quiet, this year-round home is the island dream personified. It boasts a vast yard with vibrant gardens, spacious decks, and views of Casco Bay and the Portland skyline. Inside, you'll find a welcoming two-level living space well crafted to accommodate your needs. The master bedroom is a delightful retreat with vaulted ceilings and skylight that bathes the space with natural light. Next step out onto the private deck, ideally situated to capture the water views—the perfect spot for sipping your morning coffee or losing yourself in a good book. The second bedroom, also graced with serene water views, includes a versatile bonus area with built-in shelving, perfect for a home office. The third bedroom is complemented by ample closet space and rounding out the upper level is a fully renovated bathroom with chic tiled flooring, a custom tile shower, and an elegant claw-foot tub. On the main floor the ambiance of comfort continues with a series of inviting spaces including a living room, family room and den, each warmed by a cozy wood stove. The kitchen is a chef's delight with stainless steel appliances, sleek quartz countertops and overlooks the dining area, framed by Marvin sliding doors leading to a charming smaller deck. Completing the first floor, an expansive mudroom offers convenient laundry facilities and ample built-in storage. More awaits you outside: an easily accessible outdoor shower for post-beach excursions, beautiful landscaping, mature plantings and a large shed that offers potential as a workshop or as additional storage. The property also benefits from being in a partial business zone. Leave the car behind—on the island, life is best enjoyed on foot, exploring beaches and local shops. This isn't just a home, it's a lifestyle. Come take a peek and get ready to fall in love with island living.
