About this property
A beautiful hidden gem in West Bath, Maine.
Welcome to Birch Point!
Step into serenity at Birch Point, a charming 4-bedroom, 2-bath cottage perched on the rugged Maine coast, offering sweeping open-ocean views of Winnegance Bay in historic West Bath, Maine. Whether you're here for restful mornings, lively evenings, or simply to reconnect with the water, this is your slice of coastal paradise.
Outdoor Bliss:
Begin each day with the salty sea breeze on the covered, wrap-around deck, perfect for sipping morning coffee or winding down with an evening cocktail.
Fire up the grill and enjoy steak nights, or steam lobsters for a true Maine feast.
Launch kayaks or paddleboards directly from the dock. With 4 kayaks and 4 SUPs included, you're ready for adventures! No packing required!
After a dip in the bay? Rinse off with the outdoor shower or let the dog shake off the salt under the open sky.
Indoor Comfort & Fun:
Enter through a large three-season “hangout/game” room, outfitted with a ping-pong table, dartboard, board games, and poker set — great for both relaxing downtime and entertaining.
The first floor includes three of the four bedrooms:
Two twin beds
Bunk beds (2 twin)
Primary bedroom with a king bed and private ensuite (stand-up shower)
Step down a couple of stairs into the bright, open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area. The fourth bedroom, with a full bed, is off the kitchen, as is the second full bath (tub/shower combo).
Cozy up by the fireplace on cool evenings, or unwind in front of the large flat-screen TV. Walls of windows and sliding glass doors flood the space with natural light and ocean panoramas.
Extras:
A separate garage just steps from the house includes a screened-in porch right on the water and a peaceful nook to read, dine, or just soak in the view.
One of the most delightful perks? You can order fresh lobsters for dock-side delivery. Imagine lobster dinner without leaving the dock!
Why You'll Love the Location:
West Bath & Winnegance Bay
Nestled between Bath and Brunswick, West Bath is a quiet, scenic town with a strong connection to nature. The coastline features several preserved areas, including the Green Point Preserve, which offers forested trails and stunning overlooks over Winnegance Bay. Just up the road, the Hamilton Audubon Sanctuary spans over 90 acres of woodlands and tidal marsh, ideal for birdwatching and peaceful walks.
Nearby Attractions:
Bath, Maine: Known as the “City of Ships,” Bath is deeply rooted in maritime history. Visit the Maine Maritime Museum to explore historic shipyards, learn about boat building, and take scenic river cruises.
Thorne Head Preserve & Whiskeag Trail: Just a short drive away, these trails wind through forested riverbanks and tidal wetlands, offering spectacular views.
Historic Architecture: Stroll through Bath's downtown to admire 19th-century buildings, the Gothic Revival Winter Street Church, and the elegant Hyde Mansion.
Scenic Drives & State Parks: A short trip brings you to Popham Beach State Park and Reid State Park, both offering classic Maine coastline views, walking paths, and beach time.
Local Flavor:
Grab breakfast or a pastry at Mae's Café & Bakery in nearby Bath. For dinner, indulge in seafood at local favorites — from lobster shacks to cozy pubs in downtown Bath.
Don't miss the Chocolate Church Arts Center, a converted Gothic church in Bath that now hosts concerts, art shows, and community events
Please note this property rents Friday to Friday during the peak season.
