This distinguished and elegant Dark Harbor cottage is nestled close to the village, near to the shops and private club activities. The cottage sits prominently on an acre and a quarter of land, with sunrise and sunset views from most every room, and a sprawling lawn which leads you to over a hundred feet of water frontage on Ames Cove. There is plenty of room for family and friends, with as many as seven to nine bedrooms - most with water views, four full bathrooms and a half bath and laundry. The gracious light filled living room, with fireplace and window seat, has French doors leading to the waterside covered porch, and is perfect for entertaining or simply relaxing. The cozy sitting room, with wood stove, fills with morning light from over Dark Harbor pool. The formal dining room is ready for entertaining with the full support of the kitchenette, kitchen, and pantry. There is also a casual dining and gathering area at the back of the home looking west over the water. If there isn't a need for up to seven to nine bedrooms, you may set up the rooms as an office, game room, art studio, or most any type of space you desire. And with robust broadband internet of 1GB upload/download there's plenty of bandwidth even with a full house!
