Property details
About 7 Prospect Ave
Sited high and peacefully secluded with an inviting yard, this classic, turn of the century island home hearkens back to the Peaks Island of yesteryear when this popular Summer resort destination, with its grand hotels, theaters, restaurants and an amusement park, earned it the moniker, ''Coney Island of Maine''. Lovingly preserved and maintained for four-season enjoyment, you'll be captivated by the warmth, charm and distinction of that bygone era while resting comfortably with modern features and amenities. From the expansive wrap-around porch, to the wood floors, built-ins and sea-stone fireplaces awaiting you, the pace of life immediately slows as you step inside. The first floor includes an up-to-the-minute, eat-in, cook's kitchen with pantry and a handy half bath with nearby laundry. The cozy, wood-paneled living room, with a bay window, invites you to relax and entertain by a crackling fire. Upstairs, a stylish, full bath and four bedrooms offer room for everyone with bay windows supplying ocean views and a deck for stepping into the sunshine, a starry night or a glimpse the Fourth of July fireworks! Within a short walk of the ''down front'' grocery store, post office, restaurants and ferry landing, the convenience of this private location is unmatched. The vibrant island neighborhood of year-round homeowners features an island school, health clinic, library, community center and more. Listen to the bell buoys, fog horns of the lighthouses, breathe in the sweet ocean air and recharge. Whether you're returning for another Maine Summer, or here to stay, you'll cherish this spot for years to come! Open House Sat., May 3rd - 10am-Noon.
