Description

We are looking for a quiet couple or small family to rent our charming riverside house for the winter. The Big House is the larger of two houses on the Kennebec River.

It is a three bedroom charming victorian house on the outskirts of historic and beautiful Bath, Maine. It's close to great shops, restaurants, and beaches, and just a 15-minute drive from Bowdoin College. The Big House is adjacent to a boat launch, and a short walk from the Bath Maritime Museum and a scenic dog park.

It has two large bedrooms, a full bathroom with shower, and a small office upstairs. The master bedroom has a sky light and three large windows looking out to the river. It has a queen bed, chest of drawers, fully stocked built-in bookshelves, and a reading chair. The second bedroom has two single beds, a small chest of drawers, and a walk-in closet.

The main floor has a fully stocked chef's kitchen with a gas stove and radiant heated floors that opens up to a bright and airy sunroom with a comfy couch and small table where you can eat or work. Cook your three course dinner with produce from the Bath Farmer's Market while looking out to the ice flows and bald eagles flying by.

Next to the kitchen in the center of the house is a dining room and library. A third bedroom with a queen bed is also on the main floor as well as a full bathroom with a shower.

There's a washer and dryer downstairs in the basement.

Bath is a quaint town on the Kennebec river, recently voted one of the best small towns to live in America. Front Street and Maine Street have antique shops, boutique clothing stores, Stroll around historic downtown to see the architecture, or walk along the riverside park and stop in at the Farmer's market.

If you enjoy nature and hiking, Popham Beach, Sewall Pond, Morse Mountain bird reserve and Josephine Newman Sanctuary are each about 15 minute drive. Boaters can take tours down the Kennebec (or even to Seguin Lighthouse) through the River Run tours, or the Maine Maritime Museum. This museum also has exhibits for all ages, highlighting the history of the town that once was famous for building clipper ships, including a boat builders area and a pirate ship.

Shoppers will love that Bath is 20 minutes drive from Freeport Outlet town and LL Bean flagship store. Bath is also 15 minute drive from the quaint town of Wiscasset, which is fast becoming Maine's antique-shop capital, and a 15 minute drive from Brunswick, home of Bowdoin College.

A $1000 security deposit plus the first month's rent up front. Rent includes utilities, snow removal, and Internet.

Normally, I would prefer to interview you in person, but now we will have to Zoom. In your email, please be sure to include info about yourself and hopefully a LinkedIn profile, website, and/or social media page.

About You:
You are kind, respectful, do inspiring and creative work in the world and are looking for a beautiful place to telework this winter.
