Hillcrest: Historic Coastal Charm on Back Cove
New for 2026! Welcome to Hillcrest, a magnificent 1917 historic retreat perched on 7 private, rolling acres along Back Cove in iconic New Harbor. Combining classic coastal New England heritage with room for the whole family, this 3-story estate comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests. With expansive lawns, shore access right on the cove, an enclosed 3-season porch, and a traditional farmer's porch made for slow mornings, Hillcrest offers an unforgettable backdrop for your Maine vacation.
Key Features
Spacious 3-Story Layout: Boasting 6 cozy bedrooms spread across three levels, there is ample space for multi-generational families or larger groups to relax without feeling crowded.
Sweeping 7-Acre Grounds: Spread out on expansive green lawns that roll toward the cove—ideal for yard games, leisurely walks, or watching local wildlife against a peaceful coastal backdrop.
Shore Access & Working Dock: Walk right down to the shoreline of Back Cove to explore the water's edge or launch kayaks. Guests have access to the dock and float, which is shared in true Maine coastal tradition with a local fisherman who leases a portion of the dock for the season.
Boating Privileges: Bringing your own boat? A private mooring ball in Back Cove is available for guest rental upon request.
Dual Porch Perfection: Sip your morning coffee on the classic, open-air farmer's porch, or retreat to the light-filled, enclosed 3-season porch for crisp evening board games and conversation.
Refreshed & Convenient Amenities: Enjoy an outdoor shower for washing off salty ocean water after a day by the cove, an in-home washer and dryer, and reliable heat so you can stay cozy all the way through the crisp autumn foliage season in October.
NOTE: The full bathroom and one of the half bathrooms are located on the second floor, with an additional half bath serving the main floor.
Estate Privacy & Expansion: A small, second cottage is located elsewhere on the 7-acre property. It is completely out of sight from the main farmhouse (you cannot see one from the other), ensuring your privacy. For larger family reunions or multi-family gatherings, ask about booking both properties together for a special combined estate experience!
