A young professional couple wanted a Maine home that could do it all—serve as a sophisticated base for their work, a high-performance launchpad for an active outdoor life, and a multigenerational gathering place in the rugged coastal landscape. They found their site on a quiet cul-de-sac with private water access through the woods, and envisioned a secluded sanctuary with room for kayaks, paddleboards, bicycles, and a Harley Davidson.
