About this property

Family friendly home in heart of Cape Porpoise

  • Stay in the charming heart of Cape Porpoise minutes away from two of the best beaches in the area. This historic home was built in 1866 but has modern amenities. It’s great for families (over 2,400 sq ft) with multiple options to enjoy the outdoors (garden, yard, patio, swing set & deck). Relax in the expansive king master suite, three additional queen-sized bedrooms, or cozy up in the daybed in the family room. Walk to restaurants, the harbor, & the grocer.

Lovely Vacation Home

We loved our week at this beautiful historic home in the heart of Cape Porpoise Kennebunkport. It was perfectly located in the center of town, with lovely decor and furniture and plenty of space for our family of 6. It had all of the amenities we needed for a wonderful family vacation for the week, including great furniture and appliances! We felt right at home all week.
