Situated on family-owned land in coastal Maine, this newly constructed four-bedroom home was thoughtfully designed for a retired couple seeking a comfortable retreat that could also welcome their children home from college for extended stays and accommodate visiting family and friends. Inspired by the timeless character of traditional Shingle Style architecture, the home features a welcoming front porch and a design that balances classic New England charm with modern living.

At the heart of the home, an open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area creates an inviting space for everyday life and entertaining, flowing naturally onto an outdoor deck. Recognizing the couple's shared love of reading and the importance of having a quiet personal retreat, a generously sized office was positioned in a more private area of the home, away from the activity of the main living spaces.

With fitness playing an important role in their daily lives, the home's walkout lower level was designed to accommodate a fully equipped home gym, providing a dedicated space for exercise and wellness without compromising the living areas above.

The result is a timeless coastal home that embraces the relaxed elegance of New England architecture while thoughtfully accommodating the owners' lifestyle, offering a welcoming place for family to gather, guests to stay, and new memories to be made for years to come.
