Lobster Cove Cottage

Lobster Cove Cottage Cute and comfortable, this quiet cottage built in 1800 offers a peaceful escape for those in search of a tranquil Boothbay Harbor experience. Unplug and appreciate the surroundings in the warmth of the sunroom. The living room includes more blankets, additional seating, and a resituated pull-out couch for optimal lounging as you watch TV. Enjoy a peaceful night’s rest on the California King bed in the main bedroom, just updated in December 2024. Need some quiet time? Enjoy the separate bunkhouse that has been converted into a comfortable, relaxing space with a library. The Lobster Trap, a three-season (spring, summer, and fall) garage hangout space, features cozy blankets, an electric fireplace, a couch, a custom bar with bar stools, a Fire TV, and a full-sized refrigerator. For fun, try the ping-pong table, the dartboard, the deluxe Scrabble board, or a game of Hook 21. The yoga mat is perfect for winding down, as are the L.L. Bean rocking chairs. Take a walk through the neighborhood on your way to the beach at Barrett Park. The cottage is located on 1.5 acres giving it a secluded feel. There are also great outdoor spaces, including two lawns for the kids to play on, a firepit location with Adirondack chairs and new solar lighting for family gatherings, a propane grill, and many lawn games included with the property. Indulge in grilled meals on the new custom-built picnic table. There is very little light pollution on the property so the stars are beautiful if you are interested in stargazing. When it’s time to call it a night, take refuge in the primary bedroom and turn on the electric fireplace for a cozy ambience as you drift to sleep. This home sits within walking distance of Barrett Park (three-quarters of a mile south), where you can have a scenic picnic or swim in the waters of Lewis Cove.
