Contemporary Lincolnville Cottage

The transformation of a caterpillar into a butterfly is an amazing thing to watch. Equally exciting is when a master artisan turns an ordinary house into a contemporary home rich with craftsmanship and detail not so easily found. Living larger than it looks, with every inch intelligently planned and executed, so you can get move right in and immerse yourself in the Lincolnville lifestyle.

Screened porch leads to open living, dining and kitchen which flows out to a large sun deck and patio. Cool on bare feet, solid blond oak floors gleam in the sunshine streaming through the many windows. Creamy kitchen cabinets complement Black Galaxy granite and Ipe bartop. Wood under the bar is reclaimed tongue and groove Southern yellow pine formerly on the ceiling of the porch.

En-suite, main bedroom is up front with east and south exposures. Walk-in closet is outfitted with a storage system to keep you organized. Black pebbled shower floor and travertine clad walls look great together while the large square sink sits atop an oversized vanity. Recessed niche outside bedroom door has additional closet and affords extra privacy from the living room.

Second bedroom is at the back with same micro-hallway access – stop and admire the handcrafted trim-work and how beautifully the bedroom, bathroom and laundry closet doors fit together. Overlooking the private backyard, guest room has a double closet with a built-in system to maximize utility. Linen closet and generous vanity offer welcome storage and adjacent laundry closet has a brand new stacked washer and dryer.

Sun deck will be your outdoor living and dining room almost year round. Curved flagstone patio is perfect for catching the midday sun and cooler evenings by the chiminea.  13′ x 8′ outbuilding (check out the shutters!) keeps bikes, kayaks and other important stuff dry and there’s still space for a workshop. Pavered driveway on west side holds 2 cars in tandem but you’ll be walking and biking most of the time. Welcome..
