Spectacular Oceanfront Beach House on Gooch's Beach

Located on the eastern end of Beach Avenue just one mile south of quaint downtown Kennebunkport, this high-end oceanfront property sits in an upscale neighborhood with an oceanfront location on Gooch's Beach.
Built in 1911, this well-appointed home has been beautifully renovated with the vacationing family in mind, offering an abundance of New England charm with the convenience of modern amenities.

With hardwood floors, classic and refined furnishings, and large windows that frame the ocean, the central living space is bright and welcoming. Gather for pleasant conversation in the two sitting rooms, both with expansive windows and comfortable furniture. A beautiful wet bar with granite countertops and a wine fridge.

Move into the spacious, gourmet-inspired kitchen to find additional granite counterspace, a collection of modern appliances, and a beautiful wall of exposed brick. Wake up each morning to freshly ground and brewed coffee, and make fresh lobster in the all-important lobster pot. The formal dining area offers seating for 10, while the spacious front porch equipped with rocking chairs is perfect for coffee, dessert, cocktails or just relaxing to the sound of the waves.

After long days of sunbathing, kayaking, and combing the nearby beaches for sand dollars, head downstairs to the media room. Roku equipped so you can watch all the movie channels you have at home: Netflix, HBOgo, Showtime, and many others. Put the big game on the widescreen TV. And there's no need to compromise your cable preferences - there are four more TVs, as well as WiFi, to enjoy!

With five bedrooms, four full bathrooms, and one half-bath, the Beach House at Kennebunk can sleep up to 14 people. There is a large bedroom in the lower level, with 4 twin beds. There is also a queen sleeper sofa and a full bathroom, perfect for kids or young adults to share.

There are three bedrooms on the second floor: A master suite with a king bed, a private TV, amazing views through grand Palladian windows with a gorgeous private bath. The second and third bedrooms share a full bathroom. One has two twin beds and the other has a queen bed. The third floor has a large au pair suite with a Queen and a Twin bed, a TV, and a full bathroom.

Other amenities include a full laundry room, spacious private parking for up to 8 cars plus a two car garage, a half-bathroom on the main floor and a private outdoor shower for rinsing off after a day at the beach..

Beloved in Maine and beyond for its historic architecture, beautiful country roads, and stunning sandy beaches, Kennebunk is an ideal destination for families in search of a quaint New England experience. Build sandcastles at Gooch's Beach just across the street, or simply walk a few blocks on Beach Avenue to reach the playground and tide pools at Mother's Beach.

The KBIA (Kennebunk Beach Improvement Association) is just a short walk away and offers family-friendly recreation for all ages, such as movie nights, family sailing and kayaking, and Wednesday night beach barbecues (membership is required and open to the public). During the summer, guests can also curl up in the sitting area to watch fireworks light up the water!

Get out on the water for a day of deep-sea fishing, wander through the shops of nearby Kennebunkport, or visit one of the historic lighthouses.

Location is superb

Very well stocked and in the perfect location! Our family had spent time up north in Bar Harbor and then came south to Kennebunkport- my favorite part of the whole trip was the gathering space on the front porch. Thank you for the memories!

Great location and amenities

We stayed here as a family of four, including children 3 and 6 years old, for three nights. The kids loved running around and "exploring" the house and all its nooks and crannies, along with and all the games in the living room (especially the binoculars). The beach was right across the street, and perfect for two kids to look for shells and hermit crabs (we found a lot of hermit crabs!). Can walk right into town. My son asked us to make this particular house a family tradition!

Fabulous spot for a big group!

Our extended family of 12 people had a wonderful time at this house in a stunning location. There was plenty of room for all, space for the tweens to have their own space but for all of us to gather as well. Very well-equipped, it was great that there were plenty of supplies like paper products, extra bedding and towels. Easy access for some beautiful February beach walks and stunning view from inside as well. Our host was great and very communicative.

Great house for all ages

We throughly enjoyed our stay in Kennebunk/Gooch Beach. We walked daily on the beach and the family that are unable to walk down to the beach enjoyed watching the beach from the massive well equipped front porch. The home has all the amenities imaginable. We had an incredible time there! Thank you for sharing your lovely home

Wonderful house with great amenities.

5 couples that regularly travel together stayed at the Beach House for a Fall Vacation. It was well stocked with fantastic and easy access to both Gooch’s beach and town. Kitchen was well stocked and everything was impeccably clean. Brian was great to deal with and an attentive host. Highly recommended.
