Upscale Timber-Frame Cottage, Shop/Dine/Hike/Bike

Relax and unwind at this cozy post-and-beam cottage in a woodsy setting. Complete with all the modern amenities you will feel at home after exploring all that Maine has to offer. At day’s end ascend to the loft bedroom for a great night's sleep. Please note the current Maine travel restrictions: https://www.maine.gov/covid19 This custom post and beam cottage is brand new. Designed by John Libby, one of the most respected timber frame builders in New England, (www.housesandbarns.com) this space was thoughtfully designed and meticulously built specifically for your enjoyment. This cottage resides on the owner’s property, but is sited on its own two acres nestled among a beautiful stretch of Maine hardwood forest. Accessible via its own private driveway and surrounded by acres of pristine forest, it is the perfect place to relax among nature. No matter the season the exposed weathered Douglas Fir beams of the building will both welcome you and wrap you in a feeling of comfort and contentment. This complete home has all of the amenities. The kitchen includes natural unpolished granite countertops and brand new appliances including a stainless steel gas oven/range, dishwasher and refrigerator. The whitewashed walls of the hallway and bathroom provide a more modern feel, while showcasing all the wonderful knots of the Maine white pine from which it was milled. An easy-to-access, low/no step corner shower complete with floor to ceiling tile and an oversized vanity make time in the bathroom a pleasure. The open concept makes for a natural flow through the space and the sitting area comes complete with a queen sofa bed, TV and a gas fired wood-stove. The vaulted ceilings rise 22’ above the floor providing a spacious and beautiful feel. Radiant heat in the finished concrete floors make the space cozy and keep your feet warm. Oversized and lit stairs lead to the loft where you’ll find a king sized bed providing the opportunity for a great night’s sleep. Large windows make you feel as though your sleeping in the tree tops…come Fall this Oak and Maple forest comes alive with color. A ceiling fan keeps you cool, in the Summer and moves the heat around come Winter. Enjoy the beautiful outdoors on either the front or back deck, or from your own personal fire pit complete with granite bench. Don’t forget the s’mores! Guests have access to the post and beam cottage as well as the immediate surrounding area. We ask that the property boundaries are respected and that the guests do not go past the rock wall or onto the main house property or neighboring properties/horse farm. The post and beam cottage is on the same property as our primary residence but has it’s own driveway and is situated in a private clearing surrounded by beautiful forest. We will usually be available to welcome you personally and are happy to meet new people and make new friends but we also respect our guests privacy as we expect the same in return. Thank you! This post and beam cottage is in the small town of Pownal, 20 minutes from the wonderful restaurants, sights, and sounds of Portland. It's a 10-minute drive to Freeport and the L.L.Bean flagship store. Bradbury Mountain State Park is two miles away.
