About this property

Oceanfront Estate with Private Heated Pool, Tennis Court and Direct Beach Access

Enjoy the best of Kennebunkport from the privacy of your own oceanfront home. Watch the sun rise over the ocean with a cup of coffee on the back deck, walk along the beach, play tennis on your private tennis court, watch your kids play on your backyard swingset, take a swim in your heated pool and finish the day with a relaxing drink on the rock terrace overlooking the ocean. Explore the natural wonders of the Maine coast and eat in some of the best Maine restaurants, from clam shacks and lobster houses to fine dining at places like the White Barn Inn, Earth, and Hurricane.

The mid-century modern house is perfectly situated to take in the breathtaking 180 degree ocean views. Every room has a direct ocean view - the light from the floor to ceiling windows is amazing! Featuring an open floor plan, the common areas extend from the kitchen to the dining room to the sitting room to the living room. The well-equipped gourmet kitchen was recently renovated and comes with granite countertops, a Capital commercial range, microwave, refrigerator/freezer, dishwasher, coffee maker, and butlers pantry. The kitchen flows into the dining room, which seats up to 12 people comfortably with an expansive view of the ocean. Next to the living room is the reading area, featuring four comfortable chairs and a giant wall Scrabble board. The living room is right next to the dining room and includes a large flat screen HDTV with HD cable, AppleTV, Sonos sound speaker system and wood burning fireplace.

Each of the five bedrooms has a direct ocean view. The private master suite is upstairs and features a king bed, en suite bathroom with separate shower with rain showerhead and standalone bath tub overlooking the ocean and a separate sitting room with flat-screen HDTV. There are three bedrooms on the ground floor. One has a queen bed with en suite bathroom with shower. There is a king bedroom with an attached bathroom with a combination shower/tub. The remaining bedroom on the ground floor has two twin beds and attached bathroom with combination shower/tub. There is also an additional bedroom with a king bed downstairs with walkout access on the ocean side of the house.

The well landscaped grounds offer you complete privacy. You can relax and read a book while listening to the crashing waves or fall asleep in the hammock. Or you can be adventurous and go for a swim right off your own sandy beach or in your private heated pool. If you feel like getting some exercise, you can play a few sets of tennis on your private court, go for a bike ride into town or take the kayak out to Bumpkin Island to the see the seals and the nature preserve. You have complete privacy right on the ocean. Do everything...or nothing at all. The choice is yours.

Perfect week on the Maine Coast with family

We have a very active family and this house with tennis/pickleball court, heated pool, kayak, bikes, swing set, games and puzzles was wonderful. Unbeatable views of the ocean from every room. Enjoyed the solo stove by the ocean almost every night. Host was very responsive when we had questions. Just perfect!

Thanks

The place is lovely and splendid views. Clean and well managed. The two bedrooms on first floor southside are great for kids but difficult for older adults. Attempted to reach owner when electricity went out on Wednesday and again on Friday as we left one day early due to Hurricane Lee. I could not reach him. Did enjoy the stay and the helpful guides for dining ect.

Great view of the Atlantic Ocean

We stayed for a long weekend to celebrate a 50th and 80th birthday. We had a mix of teens and adults. Everyone had plenty of room. The view was amazing and the kids loved walking along the rocks. Very convenient to lots of restaurants, shops and entertainment. We enjoyed the tennis court and even though we were later in the season, we dipped into the pool.

Hard to Top

This property significantly raised the experience bar for our annual trip to Kennebunkport. Perfection from sunrise to sunset. And then, the best stargazing I've witnessed in a very long time. Our family of 9 adults and 2 children treasured every minute.

Incredible Setting

We had an overall wonderful stay last week. The setting of this home and the views from the property are unmatched. The outdoor amenities like the pool, tennis court, swingset, etc. were fantastic. We loved being in Kennebunkport and having such easy access from the house to the town, beaches and activities. We experienced some minor hiccups with our stay (cleanliness and could maybe use some more fans for the super hot days we had) but John was very responsive and helpful. The outdoor couch by the Ocean is the best part!

One of a kind property

This property is astounding. The views of the ocean are beautiful, and falling asleep to the sound of the surf was a true pleasure. For our group (5 adults, 5 kids under age 7) it was perfect. The pool is fenced, and the tennis court was great for scooters and tricycles (which we brought with us). The swing set on the ocean was lovely. There was endless entertainment with walking the rocks, and we rather liked having the follow the schedule of the tides to determine our beach time each day. John was very attentive from afar via text and email, and the information left with the property about where to shop and dine was very helpful. Depending on the group you are traveling with, one thing to know is that the master suite (which has the trundle bed room adjacent) is much nicer than the other rooms—especially the bathroom. It was all recently updated while the other bathrooms have not been updated. Being directly on the ocean, as you might imagine, the moisture can be quite intense on humid days. There was mold on one shower curtain (owner reported it would be replaced) and the closet adjacent to the bedroom with twin beds had a very strong smell of mold, which at times travelled to the main living space. Most in our party didn’t notice it unless they literally stood right in front of it, but the person sleeping in the closest bedroom has compromised lungs and did get a significant cough during our stay. Like I said—not enough to bother a regular, healthy individual, but something to consider if you have a guest with related health issues. The master suite was completely fine and the “driest” in the house. Lastly, the kitchen was recently redone and has great appliances. Overall, we would have liked to see the house cleaned a little more deeply—we did stay at the end of the high season, however. Again, however, a very special property.

Great House- Idyllic Spot!

Wow! What a beautiful idyllic spot. We had a group of all ages and none of us wanted to leave. The information provided by the owner was so helpful and made our week easy and enjoyable. Owner was also available and responded quickly to our questions. The views are spectacular and we all felt restored after such a nice vacation where we swam, kayaked, played tennis, relaxed and cooked many memorable meals in the fabulous kitchen.

About the host

Hosted by john ayers

Host profile image
We live in Virginia on a farm and have three kids.

Why they chose this property

I grew up on the east coast and vacationed throughout New England and the Mid-Atlantic as a kid. When we had kids, we decided to look in Maine for a vacation house and fell in love with Kennebunkport. The coast is so beautiful here and its easily accessible by car or plane via Portland. Our house offers the perfect blend of quiet along with tons of activities right from our home. We now have three kids and the best part is watching them grow up here and seeing them explore all that living by the ocean offers.

What makes this property unique

The unique feature of our home is the feeling of solitude you get sitting on the back deck or down at the beach. You feel like you're the only one out there, except for the seals, cormorants, and seagulls passing by the shore. Yet there are so many wonderful things to do, from swimming in the pool and ocean, playing tennis, wiffle ball and football with kids on the beach, fishing, kayaking, and biking to name a few. The house is well-situated to host family get-togethers. Many of our renters are grandparents who want to get their extended families together in one house. Groups of adults -- be it a girls group, travel club or just good friends -- also work well in the house with five separate bedrooms, four of which have their own bathroom. Kennebunkport has many fun activities for children and adults. The food in Kennebunkport is outstanding too, whether you're cooking fresh seafood at home or enjoying the fine restaurants in town or in Portland.
