About this property

Absolutely Breathtaking Direct Oceanfront Cottage ~ Perfect Location!


  • Bella Vista is a 3 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath home sitting directly on the Atlantic Ocean side of Peaks Island at Elm Tree Cove. One of only 2 houses on a small dirt road abutting a land preserve and conservation land. See and hear the ocean waves crash into the rocks just outside of your living room and bedroom windows. Spectacular views from every room. Enjoy your morning coffee on the large covered porch with an unobstructed view of the sunrise and a panoramic view up and down the rocky coastline.. Absolutely breathtaking! One of the best spots on the backshore.

    The home is a well maintained cottage home with 3 bedrooms. All are tastefully decorated, and all have ocean views!!!.

    The 1st floor has a well stocked updated kitchen with good size refrigerator and an electric stove/oven and microwave. There is also a long L shaped dining/living room designed to take full advantage of the amazing view. There is also a library and a full bath with a shower on the 1st floor.

    The 2nd floor has 3 bedrooms: the 1st with a queen size bed and a half bath attached. The 2nd has a a full size bed and a futon. The 3rd has a twin and an Antique bed (small full - 48x72). There is also full bath with a shower/Jacuzzi tub.

    Peaks island is a 15 minute ferry from Portland, where you can experience a beautiful seaside town with a wide variety of great restaurants and activities. The island offers exceptional walking, jogging, horse riding, tennis, swimming and relaxing with a wild bird preserve, a social club for activities, little shops, grocery store and restaurants. You can easily walk to everything.

    *LINENS: If you wish to rent linens, please let me know They are available through our cleaning service. We do not mark up the price, but just offer this as a service for our guests: The rates are for the duration of your stay: flat rate of $160 for all beds and 8 towel sets (face, hand and bath).

    These prices are cheaper than local rentals and the beds will be made before your stay and stripped for you, so there is nothing for you to do.
