Modern Oceanfront Cabin on Historic Bird Point | House in Cushing
4 Bedroom House in Cushing
This delightful home was built in 2013 by owners/ architects on land that has been in their family for over 100 years. Inspired by the beauty and simplicity of Scandanavian design and the natural beauty of the Maine coast, the owners have created four separate structures that are a mix of old and new.
The main house (860 square feet) serves as the hub and center for gatherings and activities. It has the master bedroom, full bath, small office space and an open living/dining/ kitchen area. Off the kitchen is a pantry/laundry room as well as a mud room.
The full season Main house was designed to fully engage with the outside. A large deck provides for three different sitting areas all with wonderful views to the St. George River, magnificent sunrises and sunsets . The main sitting area is covered with a pentawing and seats 8 comfortably.
The “Annex” is connected to the main house by a large deck. As you enter the Annex, there is a full bath on your left and a queen bedroom to your right. At the end of the hallway there is a bunk room that can sleep 6 (2 single upper beds with 2 doubles below). Both the bunk room and queen room lead out on to a shared deck, with views to the water.
A flight of stairs down from the main house sitting deck leads to the “Bathhouse”. Originally, this small building was located at Olson House where Christina (of “Christina’s World”) lived with her brother, Alvaro. Alvaro brought the small building down to Bird Point where it was put at the head of Kissing Cove as a bath house in the early 19oo’s. Since then, the building has been moved three more times to its final location where it is today.
This Fall, the bath house was converted to a private office space for the owners.
A grassy path leads down close to the water where one will find “Marianna’s Cabin”. This sweet seasonal cabin sleeps two. There is a very small sitting area and kitchen counter where simple meals can be prepared. The cabin has a compost toilet (Separette) and a small deck where we hope to install an outside shower in the future.
Fifteen feet away from Marianna’s cabin and down a small slope is a private crushed shell sandy beach, a rarity on the coast of Maine! The beach is boredered by wonderful flat granite rocks where the often six foot tides come and go bringing sea treasures every day. The beach is totally private and a fantastic place to swim, play, relax, kayak and just hang out.
A wooded path along the water’s edge leads to “Kissing Cove”. It was once believed that long ago a pirate sought quiet shelter in the cove and that he might have buried his treasure along the banks.
Because of the shape and location of the cove, a lot of flotsam gets caught here and builds up over the seasons. At very low tide you can walk along the water’s edge from Marianna’s Beach to Kissing Cove to scout out the treasures that have been brought in with the tide. But, wear sturdy safe shoes!
