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.
