Escape to Maine's Coastal Paradise

Imagine waking up to breathtaking views of rolling meadows, a tidal marsh, and pristine forests from your own private retreat. Perched 30 feet above the coast on 15 acres, our property, Ocean Hill Farm 1785, offers a unique experience. With the Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge as your neighbor, you'll feel completely immersed in nature.



Unrivaled Location and Outdoor Activities

A 10 minute scenic stroll towards the east leads you to Parsons Beach. You can also drive if you prefer, as there is a small public parking area near the bridge.

There are many other beautiful beaches nearby to explore. Gooch's Beach, Middle Beach, and Mother's Beach are all located along Beach Avenue in Kennebunk. A short drive away, Colony Beach offers a small, protected stretch of sand perfect for watching boats and exploring a jetty. Goose Rocks Beach, known for its soft, white sand, is also a short drive away in Kennebunkport.

Outdoor enthusiasts will find endless activities to enjoy. You can cast a line for striped bass in the Mousam River or directly from the beach. For those who love the water, a nearby dock on the Mousam River and the beach are perfect for launching a lightweight kayak or canoe (rentals are available in Kennebunkport).

Additional outdoor activities include:
* Bird-watching and nature photography
* Tennis courts in West Kennebunk and Kennebunkport
* Cycling on private roads
* Star-gazing in the dark night sky



Relax and Play in Style

Our in-ground heated pool is the perfect place to start your morning or unwind in the evening. The water pump runs 24/7 to ensure the pool is always clean and inviting. The property also features three large decks, lounge chairs, a barbecue, and outdoor games.

For all-weather fun, head to the large Family Game Room, where you can challenge friends and family to a game of ping-pong or choose from a variety of board games and puzzles.

You can even catch the annual Kennebunk and Kennebunkport July 4th fireworks right from the property. On warm summer nights, be mesmerized by the fields filled with thousands of fireflies.



Charming and Comfortable Accommodations

Ocean Hill Farm 1785 is comprised of two connected houses, offering plenty of space for family and friends. The main house features a downstairs master bedroom with an en-suite bath and two additional upstairs bedrooms with a shared full bath. The furniture throughout is new and comfortable, and the walls are adorned with beautiful, museum-quality artwork. The large living and dining area comfortably seats ten and is bathed in natural light from large windows, providing stunning views of the fields, marsh, and great sunrises. Don't forget to bring your sheet music to play the Spinnet piano!

Connected by a breezeway, the second house offers two additional bedrooms and a downstairs bath. The upstairs Ocean Room has a gorgeous view of the water, while the downstairs Hummingbird Room has mesmerizing views of the gardens, fields, and forest.

For a unique experience, the Pool House features a vibrant sunroom with nine large windows, making you feel as though you're sitting outdoors. It's equipped with toys and building blocks for children and comfortable seating for adults. The Pool House has its own private door that leads directly to the heated pool area.

About the host

Hosted by Helen

Host profile image
I spent vacations here as a child and my children grew up here. We have always appreciated a deep connection with the nature it offers. Our property is relatively quiet. Deer, turkeys and the occasional fox inhabit it. We all enjoyed being surrounded with meadows, woods, salt water and fresh water swimming, ping pong, indoor games and many outdoor games and activities.

My favorite part of being a hostess is seeing the expressions on my guests's faces when they enter the living room and see the view. In a second, they are delighted and at home.

Why they chose this property

My mother's grandfather moved here from Alfred, Maine, in 1890. It is said our two beaches comprise the longest stretch of ‘undeveloped’ shoreline on the East Coast. Crescent Surf is so isolated, the U.S. Military stationed here during W.W.II. scaring my mother one time when she came out from swimming in the ocean.

I moved here in 1978 with my two sons after I inherited the Farm with its large acreage. I wanted my children to grow up with the wonders of Parsons Beach, nature and the excellent schools of Kennebunk.

What makes this property unique

Col. Hart received the land between Little River and Mousam River as an acknowledgment of his contribution to the War of Independence. He chose the hill where my house sits for his home, farmed the fields and hayed the marsh. His descendants sold their homestead to my great-grandfather in 1890.

You can know you frequented the same beach as George W.H.Bush and Cole Porter. George during the last few years of his administration when he jogged it during the off season and Cole while he and my cousin were roommates at university and they visited here at my Aunt's.
