About this property
Classic Maine Cottage with ocean views
This renovated classic 1940’s shingled Maine summer cottage is bright and cheerful throughout--like a page from 'House and Gardens' magazine. Furnishings are in the Maine cottage style, and the gourmet kitchen has been updated with all new appliances for the 2019 season. First floor has a single bunk bedroom suitable for children and shower bath, second floor has three bedrooms--two with queen size beds and one with twin beds-- and bathroom with a claw foot tub.  Downstairs bathroom completely renovated and expanded in 2019 with all new fixtures, tile, and front loading washer and dryer.  Mattresses on all upstairs bedrooms are new within the last year 
Enjoy ocean views through a wall of windows looking out across an open field or from the master bedroom. Great outdoor living spaces-- with a large deck that overlooks a completely private lawn--perfect for games--and includes updated furniture and barbecue. Eat-in kitchen is fully equipped with stunning views into the surrounding two acres of woods.
Great place for kids who delight with playing field out-front, 'secret' forts in the woods, and looking for treasures on the rocks and beaches. Steps away from the Juniper Point community house, four clay tennis courts, boat dock and beach. This cottage has heat and a woodburning fireplace, so would be a good choice for the off season (May, June, September, October). New Anderson 400 windows (in 2019 ) help keep the cold out, and the warmth in.
The Osprey cottage is kept bright and fresh through frequent upgrades and repairs. Key upgrades for 2019 include replacing older style windows throughout, new kitchen appliances (refrigerator, stove, and dishwasher) and updating the downstairs bathroom and laundry.
House is ideal for four adults, but will accomodate up to six maximum.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Sarah Barton
Property is owned by Bill and Lisa Barton.  Bill has summered in Boothbay Harbor all his life.  Bill is also the past president of the Juniper Point Association, an organization that brings together residents on Juniper and McKown points and maintains the community house, four clay tennis courts, two docks, trails and beach access.  
Why they chose this property
Bill's mother, the artist Nancy Hemenway Barton, was born in Boothbay the summer of 1920.  Numerous family members have summer homes  on Juniper Point and its been the much loved gathering spot for countless summers.  Purchased the house in 1999 so that our children--we have six in all--would have a place to come with their spouses and children. 
What makes this property unique
Summer in Maine is about the outdoors for us, whether it be boating, tennis, hiking, kayaking, paddle boarding, swimming off the dock, or just relaxing in a family atmosphere.  Bill's brother's both have houses nearby as do several cousins, so there is lots of movement between the cottages, picnics and fun multi-generational outings to nearby islands, beaches, or to town. The whole community retains a friendly, low key atmosphere that is welcoming yet not intrusive.
