| THE BEACH ROSE - HIGGINS BEACH |

Since a complete “ground up” renovation
in 1993, this quintessential Maine beach
cottage has made a distinct architectural
statement for quality and design. The
original one story cottage was elevated
and completely redone—the end result
is seaside perfection, offering three
bedrooms with two-and-a-half baths. The
second floor boasts a master bedroom
suite with unobstructed, sweeping
views of the beach and the Atlantic
Ocean. Several recent modifications
include a high efficiency, on-demand
heat and hot water system, as well as a
fireplace which provides high capacity
supplemental heating. An additional
system enhancement is a state-of-theart solar panel system which supplies
virtually all electrical needs, thus ensuring

porches and fencing, new hardwood
floors, as well as
