Description

Bradley Shore Road is an exceptional waterfront retreat with 17.74 acres, 416 feet of varied shoreline, and broad views over the Damariscotta River and beyond. Well built and thoughtfully designed for year-round living, the contemporary-style home offers a comfortable layout well suited to both everyday living and entertaining family and friends. Originally built in 1989 and very well maintained, the three-to-four-bedroom home features an open great room with a fireplace and wood stove and sliding glass doors open to a covered deck and screened porch with sweeping down to the shoreline. There is also a spacious main-floor primary suite, office and library space, and a finished walk-out lower level. Quality details such as enclosed steel beams, custom tilework, black walnut accents, and cherry finishes lend the home its unique character. The property also has an attached three-car garage, a recently built summer sleeping cottage, and additional versatile outbuildings. The grounds include lawn, flowering gardens, and a patio, along with a sandy pocket beach and a tidal dock system with a ramp and two floats. A private walking path connects to the abutting Dodge Point Preserve, where there are wonderful walking trails, a sand beach, and opportunities for cross-country skiing. Approached by a long, winding drive, the setting is private and quiet, set well above the water with shore access well suited to children, yet just minutes from downtown Damariscotta. Bradley Shore Road has been the setting for many memorable family summers on the water and cozy winter gatherings. With conservation land on two sides, the property's exceptional character is well protected.
