Welcome to an extraordinary opportunity to own a piece of Kennebunkport history. Built in 1897 and gracefully perched on prestigious Ocean Avenue, this grand Cape Arundel estate boasts stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean and the iconic St. Ann's Church, offering the perfect blend of historic elegance and modern coastal living.
This quintessential Maine cottage features 6 bedrooms and 4 baths, designed for both intimate gatherings and extended family stays. The heart of the home is a spacious chef's kitchen, complete with a soaring cathedral ceiling, an abundance of custom cabinetry, a sunlit breakfast area, and ample room for culinary creativity.
Entertain with ease in the open dining and sitting area, anchored by a cozy gas fireplace, or retreat to the formal living room, adorned with warm wood accents and a wood-burning fireplace flanked by bespoke built-in benches. A year-round porch provides the perfect vantage point for enjoying the breathtaking ocean views in every season.

Step outside to an expansive deck, private rear patio, and a graciously landscaped yard filled with mature gardens—a tranquil setting for outdoor entertaining or peaceful relaxation. A detached garage includes a second-floor summer room with bold ocean vistas, providing even more space to unwind or host guests.
