Houses with Striking Ocean Views
1 of 7
The Porter cottage, on an island 20 miles off the coast of Maine, makes the most of its unwieldy site. The cottage was sited as close to the water as legally allowed in order to take advantage of the views, and far enough away from a graywater leach field where the soil is deep enough to allow for proper run off.
The deck off the front is also minimally furnished with elegant lines of beach rock and two Leaf chairs by Arper.
