York, Maine — Welcome to Vacation By The Sea, a beloved four-bedroom, two-bath home that perfectly blends space, comfort, and a prime beach location. This classic Maine home may have a vintage touch, but it’s a guest favorite year after year thanks to its unbeatable setup for large families and groups looking to make lasting seaside memories.

🏡 Spacious Living, Perfect for Gathering
Step inside to an open-concept living area with a large living room and a separate private sitting room that can double as an extra TV space or sleeping area with its full-size sleeper sofa.

The huge kitchen and dining area comfortably seats 12 guests, making it easy to enjoy family meals together. Sliding doors lead to a large deck, perfect for grilling, gathering, or playing a round of cornhole. Beyond the deck, the big backyard offers plenty of space for kids to play and families to unwind after a day at the beach.

✨ Lower-Level Fun & Outdoor Living
The finished lower level offers a second living room with a TV and pool table, perfect for cozy nights in. Step through the back door to find the outdoor shower — clean, private, and complete with hot and cold water for rinsing off sandy toes.

🛏 Comfortable Sleeping Arrangements
Upstairs, you’ll find four spacious bedrooms:
2 Queen bedrooms
2 Twin bedrooms*
A/C window units keep the home cool on warm summer days, while new mattresses, pillows, and bedding (2022) ensure a great night’s sleep.

Thoughtful Amenities & Extras
The home is fully stocked for vacation living, from blueberry pancake breakfasts to traditional New England lobster bakes. Linens, towels, complimentary toiletries, and welcome snacks are all provided.

The laundry room features one washer and two dryers — perfect for families tackling a week’s worth of beach towels!

🚶 Unbeatable Location
Centrally located, this home makes it easy to walk to both Short Sands and Long Sands Beaches. Short Sands offers family fun with York’s Wild Kingdom, Bowl-A-Rama, shops, and restaurants, while Long Sands offers 1.5 miles of sandy shoreline and the picturesque Nubble Lighthouse.

With parking for five cars (a rarity in York), you’ll have plenty of room for your whole group to explore the coast — from Portsmouth to Kennebunkport and Portland. Spend your days on lobster boat tours, lighthouse excursions, or exploring charming New England towns nearby.

✨ Vacation By The Sea is a classic Maine beach house that combines room to spread out, a perfect location, and a welcoming, nostalgic vibe. It’s no wonder this property is one of our most sought-after summer homes year after year.
