Aug 9-16 special! Victorian with Lawn & Beautiful Water Views. The Yellow House is a magnificent old family summer home overlooking the Damariscotta Harbor, perfect for a classic Maine vacation or family reunion. We welcome guests at The Yellow House from Memorial Day through September and close the summer home for the winter. At any time during the year, guests will have the privacy of being the only guests at the property.The property has a unique blend of privacy, natural beauty, and convenience. Enjoy a quiet sunset over the water from the large, West-facing porch, steps away from Damariscotta’s charming downtown. A massive sloping lawn flanked by mature trees provide cover for noise and sight-lines creating a sense of seclusion, despite the proximity to town. A quick two minute walk down a quiet side-street provides access to Damariscotta’s restaurants, shops, galleries, and bars, a local movie theater, and a lovely bookstore. Pop out for a coffee and pastries in the morning, grab a lobster roll for lunch, enjoy renowned Pemaquid Oysters and a beer at Schooner Landing in the evening, or take a walk after dinner for an ice cream cone. The house has wonderful character and has been a gathering place for families for decades. There is a large kitchen/pantry (updated appliances) that opens up to a central sitting room perfect for morning coffee, card games, or relaxing throughout the day as people come and go from the home. There is a large dining room that can seat up to 14 people, open to a living room with a big leather sofa and 4 sitting chairs. The waterfront backyard offers an ideal venue for lawn games: whiffle ball, bocce, and croquet. The area boasts a long list of summer activities, including kayaking and boating in town, shopping in Damariscotta or nearby Boothbay, lakes, beaches, fishing and golf.
