Lovely Cape Elizabeth Family Home 3 to 5 miles to Portland & Beaches 3,700sf A/C

CENTRAL-AIR-CONDITIONING. Lovely coastal Maine cottage-style home in Cape Elizabeth with a bright and open floor plan. Our home is located in a peaceful family residential neighborhood and abuts to several acres of wooded greenbelt trails. We are near the Spurwink Marsh and River, home of the Rachel Carson wildlife preserve and we are just a mere 2.5 to 6 miles to some of the finest beaches in Maine. The vibrant small city of Portland is 6 miles from our home. Come and enjoy her many restaurants, micro brews and sights!

Our home is a cottage-style Maine home and has 4 plus one bedrooms: The master suite has a king size bed with private full bath. Bedroom #2 has a queen memory bed (comfy!) along with a sitting couch. Bedroom #3 has a queen size bed with sitting chair. Bedroom #4 has a beautiful adjustable base California King bed with a sitting chair. The plus #5 bedroom is what we call the boat room. This is the 700 sq. foot bonus room. It has two beautifully crafted full sized boat beds, big screen TV, toys and plenty of sitting chairs. The walls are lined with built in book selves loaded with children's books. This room can be used as a bedroom or living space. All bedrooms are on the second floor. In addition to the master bath on the second floor there is a full-sized bathroom just off the hallway with double sinks and a separate toilet and shower room that can be closed off with a pocket door.
The first floor of our home has an open and airy floor plan: a gourmet kitchen opens into the living room which then opens to a lovely dinning room. From the kitchen you may walk right on to the blue stone terrace in the back yard. Also, on the first floor is a mudroom and half bath and a private office space.
Outside you will find a fully fenced backyard and a large blue stone terrace that backs up to conservation green space. Our home also has a wonderful front porch to cozy up with a good summer read or a morning cup of coffee!
***this home has central air conditioning for the relief from the hot and humid summer days and wonderful radiant base-board heat for the chilly Fall and Winter season.

My four friends and I were enchanted by this lovely home in a wonderful neighborhood. Instructions, house rules, etc., were very clear. The owners graciously accommodated our early check-in and provided an exhaustive list of resources, from restaurants to markets to beaches to attractions to visit. As the chef for the group, I was very impressed by the well-equipped kitchen, and could have set up housekeeping there. Bedrooms were spacious and beautifully appointed, and all the accoutrements were high-end. We enjoyed hiking on the abutting greenway and walking to the nearby farmer's market. Cape Elizabeth is a terrific location close to Portland and all its attractions but away from the bustle, and you have your choice of great beaches nearby. Can't say enough good things about this property and the owners -- best VRBO experience ever!

Girls Weekend

From start to finish regarding our mini vacation Liz was onboard and available 24/7!! Sincerely mean that….great response time to any questions which is important when you are the one responsible planning every detail. The house was beautiful and easily accommodated our group of five. Such an easy drive to Portland where we took a pottery class, shopped and had some wonderful dining experiences. I would love to come back to this house and experience it in the summer. Thank you Liz and John for sharing your lovely house!!!

Women's Weekend

We were all grateful for the comfort and ease Liz and John's home offered us over the long wknd. Especially appreciated the comfortable beds, well appointed kitchen, convenient location to beaches and running trails, and the personal touches - feels like you're in a real home not a house purchased solely to rent to vacationers. Working with Liz in the lead up to our stay was a pleasure; super responsive and accommodating. Recommend if you're looking to gather with a big group.

Perfect Vacation Home

We found a beautiful home in Cape Elizabeth to enjoy a family vacation. The home is spacious and well appointed. It is near everything from downtown Portland to the beaches on Cape Elizabeth, to Fort Williams and the Lighthouse, to Freeport, and to Kennebunkport to name just a few destination spots. The house is minutes from the train station and the airport. We enjoyed reclaiming our Maine family roots. The house - with the exceptional hosts - made our time in Maine special indeed.

Best VRBO experience

I could go on and on…Liz and John were the best hosts ever. The property is spectacular. Everything you would need. My friend is a gourmet cook and found the kitchen was a dream! The front and back areas of the home were magnificent for eating, chatting or just hanging out. Liz and John were so welcoming of my friend’s old lab mix dog. All of their recommendations were spot on for myself and my guests and enhanced the experience! They made it comfortable for all of us. The best VRBO experience of my life. Hoping to go back to enjoy more of Liz and John’s Maine!

Flower filled porch

As developers/builders, we are not easily impressed. This house did it. It had special features and appliances, great opportunity to cook, to sit on a flower filled porch, super comfortable. While incredible, you didn’t feel like your everyday movement would ruin it. Great location, quiet neighborhood.

Gorgeous property in Cape Elizabeth

This wonderful property was the perfect place for our family of seven. The main floor is open, welcoming and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked with all the utensils and appliances anyone might need. Upstairs the five bedrooms had comfortable beds, and the bathroom facilities were perfect for us. The natural light that flows throughout the house is excellent. Communication with the owners was terrific. Liz and John provided all the support we needed during our stay. Our experience was excellent in every respect. We would not hesitate to return to this property for our next family gathering in the Greater Portland area. A big thank you to Liz and John!!

Beautiful home and great neighborhood

This house is wonderful and the host is amazing! There is a cool kids room stocked with toys and books. The house is set up very well with helpful notes. We had an awesome stay and Liz and John the hosts reached out before and during our stay to make sure everything was going well. They even provided an extensive guide to the area. I had mentioned taking the kids to the tide pools at low tide, and Liz and John printed out a tide schedule and left it in the house before we arrived. Very thoughtful and caring. We were only there for a couple of days but this is a place I would love to come back to and rent for a month!

Perfect spot for extended family get together

Ideal home for our family get-together. The house is made for casual entertaining…the huge kitchen island, the spacious but still cozy living room, and the back patio so well surrounded by trees that it’s like another room. High ceilings. Lots of bedrooms. And Liz could not have been more helpful — very clear info about how everything in the house works (like the dishwasher) and quick to answer questions when we had them.
