Tucked into one of Kennebunk's most beloved neighborhoods -- just one mile to Dock Square and the beach -- 4 Cottagewood Lane offers nearly 4,800 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space that strikes the perfect balance between refined and comfortable.The dramatic living room immediately draws you in with soaring cathedral ceilings and a gas fireplace; equally suited for elegant gatherings or quiet evenings at home. The sun-filled kitchen was designed for real life and memorable moments alike, featuring granite countertops, a generous island, pantry, and gourmet appliances. Just beyond, the heated four-season sunroom becomes a retreat all its own, with vaulted ceilings and cozy atmosphere that make morning coffee in January feel just as inviting as sunset evenings in July. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a true escape, complete with custom built-ins, his and hers walk-in closets, a double vanity, jetted tub, and shower. Three additional bedrooms, second-floor laundry, and a finished lower-level bonus room offer flexibility for guests, work, play, or whatever life currently calls for. This is a home that has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully appointed -- radiant heat in the three-car garage, kitchen, and bathrooms is just one example of the many amenities that make everyday living here feel remarkably easy. Outside, the lifestyle continues. The fenced-in, in-ground pool is surrounded by elegant gardens that create a private, resort-like setting, while raised garden beds, blueberry bushes, and a charming shed add both beauty and function beyond the pool area. Set on nearly an acre with irrigation, the backyard invites you to slow down, settle in, and savor every season. There are homes you tour, and homes you never want to leave. This is the second kind.
