Sea - Esta: The Cottage at the Marsh. 2 minute walk to the beach!

For a quiet retreat to enjoy the ocean and recharge, the Sea - Esta Cottage is a gem!

This 3 bedroom house is on a 2-mile dead end street that initially brings you through the lovely University of New England campus before turning completely residential. It's great for running, walking, and biking. The lot abuts the Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge at the rear with great views from the second floor sunroom.

A 2-minute walk from the front door offers access to a sandy beach. Great for sunbathing, swimming, walking, exploring, and fishing off the jetty where the Saco River empties into the Atlantic. You might even see the Old Orchard Beach fireworks on Thursday evenings during the summer!

Looking for a change of venue? Just a 10 minute car ride / 20 minute bike ride gets you to Biddeford Pool and Fortune's Rocks beach. Biddeford Pool has a very small commercial section, featuring the beloved seaside restaurant and general store with stunning views, Goldthwaite's/Pool Lobster.

The property manager lives just steps away from the rental house, and is happy to provide assistance, support, and recommendations by request.
