Kirstie Alley’s Pretty House in Maine!
Kirstie Alley's Pretty House in Maine!
At first, we just stared in disbelief. We had a mind jumble; a brain glitch. What happened? It's a multimillion dollar house . . but in pink? It's an English country garden; a French country house gone Shabby Chic American. Whatever was done here, after we regained our senses, it's really starting to grow on us. The longer we look at it, the more beautiful it becomes. We just aren't accustomed to someone having the strength of their convictions and throwing it all out there, come hell or high water! It's an uber-girly house! The one thing of which we feel sure is that a man stepping inside never felt comfortable enough to stay longer than it takes to think up a good emergency that needs immediate attention! But that's ok. Once in a while the gals need a retreat just like he dreams of having his Harley parked next to the pool table in the middle of his formal living room! This may be girly, but it's done to perfection and compliments the picturesque structure and the dreamy cottage garden setting nestled on 16 acres of waterfront.
This is definitely a charmer! Between the location on the water and the exterior and interior architecture, this is definitely the place we all want to be! It has enough room to collect all your family and friends for a great weekend party as well as a few stay-over house guests who will never get under your feet or in your hair. This is the house that makes you smile and feel cheerful. It's impossible to feel sad when surrounded with so many large cozy rooms decked out in bright happy colors and prints. Sure, you can neutralize it and make it your own by just changing the furniture and painting out a little pink, but we're guessing that you may find you like it just the way Kirstie does.
Located on the waterfront in Islesboro, Maine, the Cape Cod cottage has five bedrooms, three fireplaces and a fabulous, well conceived retro live-in gourmet kitchen guaranteed to inspire. The bedrooms are exactly where a passel of cousins would love to have a sleep-over to gossip and giggle the night away. Excuse us while we gush, but the outdoor living areas with fireplace, informal lush gardens laden with flowers for the picking . . . it's a paradise where you want to take time to explore every path, while the pier looks like a perfect spot to cast a line and listen to the wavelets wash the shore.
Kirstie, how could you ever leave this magical place? Listed at $2.35m and worth every penny just in the ambiance alone!
