About this property

Cape Porpoise village with harbor views. Walk to shops and restaurants.

Beautiful, newly-built (completed June 2023), custom New England clapboard style home located in Cape Porpoise, one of the most beautiful and desirable neighborhoods in Kennebunkport.

This new house sits on the site of our old summer cottage that we rented for the past 10 years. We just completed construction in June 2023. We have a 5.0 star rating with 34 reviews on the previous property and fully expect to continue to provide a top-notch rental experience to our guests.

You can sit in the rockers on our front porch for morning coffee and watch the sunrise over the fishing boats in Cape Porpoise Harbor or have drinks and hors d'oeuvres on the enclosed screen porch and watch the sunset overlooking the ocean marsh.




Second floor master suite with views of Cape Porpoise harbor has vaulted wood ceiling, king size bed, en-suite marble and subway tile bath with walk-in shower, hardwood floors.


Second floor guest bedroom with queen size bed, hardwood floors, en-suite marble and subway tile full bath.


Spacious living room with gas fireplace, flat screen, smart TV.

Beautiful high-end kitchen with Thermador appliances, marble countertops. Adjacent dining area with french doors that open to enclosed screen porch with teak sofa and chairs.

First floor laundry area and powder room.

So much is within walking distance...
Bradbury Brothers supermarket - a Cape Porpoise institution has everyday groceries, full liquor selection, butcher, sandwiches made to order

Langsford Road Lobster & Fish - just steps across the street where you can buy fresh lobster, steamers, corn on the cob, fish and clam chowder. John will even steam your lobster dinner for you.
Cape Porpoise Kitchen - fabulous prepared foods and sandwiches, coffee, espresso, wine, cheese, desserts and housewares/gifts.
The Wright Gallery - a beloved landmark for thirty years. This Cape Porpoise art gallery specializes in fine traditional New England art ranging from “superrealism” to more cubist interpretations of realism. Over forty artists are displayed, featuring an array of distinctive work including oils, acrylics using both knife and brush, watercolors, pastels, Scherenschnitte, Trompe L’oeil and more.
Musette - formerly The Wayfarer. Owned by Jonathan Cartwright, the former renowned chef from The White Barn Inn. Great fare for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
The Casa 77/Ultramar - A 15 minute walk to the end of Pier Road. Two great restaurants.
Nunan’s Lobster Hut - Another legendary Cap Porpoise institution. For a delicious, traditional Maine lobster dinner.

Take an evening stroll and collect seashells on secluded Goose Rocks Beach just 5 miles down the road with 3 miles of pristine coastline.
Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge and The Wells Reserve at Laudholm in Wells are about a 15 minute drive and have miles and miles of pristine walking trails.

Just 2 miles away is Kennebunk's Lower Village & Kennebunkport's Dock Square, located along the ocean and Kennebunk River. Here you'll find great shopping and gift shops, fantastic dining, whale watching & sailing excursions.

A wonderful comfortable home
The home is very comfortable and nicely appointed; there is nothing we needed that wasn't there for us. It is also in a great location! You can walk a short distance to pick up cooked lobster to take home. A bit further and you can find a wonderful seafood restaurant where you can sit inside/outside or take their their dishes home to enjoy.

Charming, Peaceful Harbor-View Cottage
This idyllic cottage boasts a captivating view of Cape Porpoise harbor from the comfortable rocking chairs on the front porch. It’s perfectly situated in a quaint fishing village just minutes from downtown Kennebunkport and lovely Goose Rocks Beach. The village of Cape Porpoise has wonderful restaurants, markets, art galleries, and shops, all within walking distance. This magical cottage is fully appointed, superbly decorated, quiet and comfortable. What a dream vacation this was to unwind and unplug with friends, and to explore one of the most beautiful spots the New England coast has to offer. Hosts Brian and Michael are friendly, responsive, and welcoming. They have created a warm and inviting getaway that will surely be a favorite destination of ours for years to come.

Langsford at its best
An idyllic Maine experience in a perfectly serene cottage. Morning coffee on the porch watching the sparkling cove in front, afternoon breezes with a view of the tidal wetlands behind, and dinner in the fantastic gathering room.

Magical
My husband and I just returned from a week long stay with our friends at this magical property. It is such a special spot… The views from both the front porch and the backyard are drop dead gorgeous, the gardens are stunning and the house itself is beyond lovely. The second we pulled into the driveway I could feel the stress melting away…. I could’ve stayed for a month. Communication with Brian, the owner of the house, was stellar. He had great suggestions and always responded very quickly whenever I had a question. The town of Cape porpoise is walking distance and has a wonderful takeout market and a couple of little restaurants. I have not even one tiny negative thing to say about this wonderful place and I cannot wait to go back. It’s perfection.

About the host

Hosted by Brian Glaser

Host profile image
My husband and I are both native New Englanders and fell in love with Cape Porpoise and everything Maine about 11 years ago. We plan to retire here soon. We finished a complete rebuild of the property in June 2023.

Why they chose this property

Cape Porpoise is a quintessential Maine coastal village, just 2 miles north of "downtown" Dock square.

What makes this property unique

Brand new classic New Englander clapboard style cottage with charm and character abound. Harbor and ocean marsh views all around and just a few minute walk to restaurants/bars, fresh lobster/fish/seafood (across the street), groceries, wine/liquor, library, art gallery, coffee shop and prepared foods.
