A Timeless Southport Bungalow Above Cozy Harbor

Mon, 12/15/2025 - 1:59pm

Tucked into the heart of Southport Island, 461 Hendricks Hill Road offers the kind of charm and sense of place that’s becoming increasingly rare along the Maine coast. Crossing one of the few remaining swing bridges instantly sets the tone, welcoming you into a close-knit island community where time moves a little slower. Built in 1914 as the local Methodist Church parsonage, this bungalow-style, year-round home sits gracefully above Cozy Harbor, just minutes from Hendricks Head Beach and Lighthouse, the Southport General Store, the Southport Yacht Club, and an easy drive to Boothbay Harbor and other Midcoast destinations.

Inside, the home blends historic character with thoughtful functionality. Period woodwork, stained-glass windows, and a fireplace anchor the living room with warmth and authenticity, while the layout surprises with 1,855 square feet of living space. A sunny eat-in kitchen, a study with its own exterior entrance, and a wide, south-facing porch create spaces that invite both quiet moments and easy entertaining. The primary bedroom is arranged as a two-room suite, offering flexibility and generous storage, while a tiled mudroom—added in 2006—provides practical space for beach gear and everyday living.

Adding even more versatility is a separate two-story garage built in 1997, with room for vehicle or boat storage below and a second-floor space ideal for a studio, office, or playroom. The property currently enjoys both a year-round on-site water supply and seasonal public water, with year-round public water service scheduled to be available by winter 2026. With a motivated seller and an exceptional location rooted in Southport’s maritime heritage, this home presents a compelling opportunity to own a piece of classic island life with room to make it your own.
