Prospect Cottage

Encompassing 4± acres, Prospect Cottage is situated in a spectacular, private waterfront setting on Gaunt Neck in Cushing. The beautifully constructed year-round home was designed by John Morris Architects with high-end finishes, and interior designed by British firm Hudson Homes & Interiors. An attractive barn is located next to the house and the property includes open lawn and fields, mature trees, well-maintained gardens, stonework, walking paths, and a total of 335± feet of accessible shorefront on the Meduncook River, a tidal estuary. Steps lead to the gentle rocky shore for swimming and kayaking; and a fire pit, picnic table for lobster dinners, hot tub and outdoor shower complete the setup for summer outdoor living.

The property is located in the Gaunt Neck subdivision, a neighborhood of fine residences that are accessed via a mile-long paved drive that creates the impression of being on an island, with road access. The property benefits from the right to use the subdivision’s deep-water wharf with protected mooring field and tennis courts. It is easily accessible from both the Portland International Jetport and Knox Country Regional Airport in Owls Head, just 20 minutes away with regular daily commuter flights from Boston.
