Maybe you’re one of those people that enjoy surfing the internet and seeing current homes for sale. Even though they are completely out of your price budget, it’s fun to dream and think, “Wow! What would it be like to live here?”

What is your idea of the perfect home? Maybe you’re a beach lover and coastal dreamer who wants a large and spacious home, all updated, with some great architecture and waterfront views.

If you’ve ever imagined living in a slice of seaside paradise, hold onto your lobster rolls, because the most expensive home in South Portland’s Willard Beach neighborhood just sold for a cool $500,000 over asking price in 2023 at $2.5 million. Listed by Patti Foden of Keller Williams Realty, 10 Myrtle Ave isn’t just a house—it’s a ticket to the quintessential Maine coastal lifestyle.

Picture this: a spacious three-bedroom, 3,317-square-foot home with two full bathrooms, two half baths, and even a cozy office space for those work-from-home days (because who wouldn’t want an ocean view from their desk?). This place isn’t just about the indoors. It’s a lifestyle upgrade with easy beach access and plenty of room to entertain.

Located on Willard Beach, this spot is like the holy grail of coastal living. Think nautical charm-meets-modern comfort, with three stories of decks offering views of Casco Bay. Imagine waking up to the sunrise and sipping your morning coffee as seagulls fly by.

You’re also not just getting a house with waterfront views; you’re now surrounded by historic lighthouses, well-known restaurants, and scenic trails perfect for walks and bike rides.

It’s not really a surprise that this was the most expensive home to sell in South Portland last year. Living here isn’t just a home, it’s a lifestyle upgrade. And it’s in South Portland, one of the most desirable places to live in New England.

Just south of Moosehead Lake lies a memorial that some may not know about. The memorial is a short hike in, right on the southern slope of Elephant Mountain in Piscataquis County.

The memorial is the crash site of a B-52 Stratofortress that went down on a training mission in 1963.

The site is now a popular hiking destination for folks to learn of its history and to pay respect to the seven men who lost their lives that fateful day.

A thank you to Erin from Norway, who took these very powerful images of the site, and allowing us to tell the story through her work.
