As you drive down prestigious Shore Road in Cape Elizabeth, and round the corner past one of its most photographed and picturesque coves, with the surf crashing against the rocky coast, the circadian light in the cupola of 1 Singles Road beckons you home. Enter this seaside street, with deeded ocean access, and you're welcomed by a timeless white farmhouse with wrap around porch and a large red barn designed by esteemed architect Linda Banks, of Banks Design Studio, and built by Craig Cooper of Rainbow Construction. Clean, crisp lines, oversized black Marvin windows, HardiePlank clapboards, Ipe porches, and standing seam copper porch roof all contribute to a home that looks as though it has been there for a century. The 6,000-square-foot property offers peeks of water from several rooms that flow easily to each other and to the exterior entertaining spaces. Enjoy the serenity of ocean breezes on a stone terrace with a wood-burning fireplace, or lounge on a covered porch overlooking stunning mature gardens, blueberry bushes, and a peach tree. Watch family members play on the half basketball court, or explore Robinson Woods, 197 acres of conservation woodlands, fields, ponds, and walking trails just steps from your door. Appointed with a large chef's kitchen, two butler's pantries, front and back staircase, library, family room, quarter-sawn white oak floors, 4 en suite bedrooms, a large bonus room, two-story mudroom, office, radiant heat, central a/c, and too many amenities to mention, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity.
