263 Gaunt Neck Rd

Located in a spectacular waterfront setting on Gaunt Neck in Cushing, Prospect Cottage features 4 acres and views to the west over the Medunkcook River and south towards Muscongus Bay. The four-bedroom house was expertly designed by John Morris Architects and very well built with quality woodwork and high-end finishes, enhanced by tremendous attention to detail and materials. The heart of the home is a light-filled great room with a cathedral ceiling, exposed wood beams, and a locally crafted stone fireplace. A first-floor primary bedroom suite is set away from the main part of the house for privacy and comfort and there are two en-suite bedrooms on the second floor plus a creative bunkroom. The property includes an attractive barn with space for cars and equipment, and the landscape has areas of lawn with mature trees, established perennial gardens, walking paths, a water's edge firepit and platform picnic table. Steps lead to 335 feet of attractive and accessible shorefront, ideal for swimming, fishing and kayaking, with a deep-water mooring. The property is located in Gaunt Neck, a neighborhood of distinctive homes that benefit from a community deep-water wharf with protected mooring field and tennis/pickleball courts.
