This is Blomstereng: a Norwegian-named home that means 'flower meadow.'

Designed by the venerated Swedish firm Trelleborg, Blomstereng is an understated beauty imagined and created by good friends for profound yet simple living. Like a haiku, it invites slow wandering and new awakenings. Like a secret hideout, it waits for its chosen explorer while it rests in a tree-dotted meadow on the shore of a little-known cove.

At Blomstereng, form follows function. Every space is meant to be useful. Every room is meant to be lived in. Electric lines are buried to preserve the beauty of the landscape and protect the energy supply. Automated generator backup is built in for added resilience. First floor living spaces allow for aging in place. From a two-bay garage, home access is via a mud and laundry room. A separate entrance allows direct entry to an upstairs bedroom and attached office. All-wood exterior siding showcases traditional wood finishing while the vertical board-and-batten design provides exceptional durability over horizontally-placed finishes. Wall thicknesses exceed standards, providing for superb energy efficiency. Fresh air is circulated via a whole-house heat recovery ventilator system. Oversized skylights enhance light and ventilation. The fireproof tiled roof exceeds other types of roofing materials for longevity. A protected wood bin is built into the garden shed. In the winter, a Scandinavian wood stove provides cheer and warmth to all within.

At once a singular home and experience, Blomstereng includes 3.5 acres of uncluttered landscapes, raised gardens, fruit and hardwood trees, and bright clear views over Broad Cove and islands of Muscongus Bay. Coastal birds and wildlife abound. A dock, float, mooring and two canoes allow immediate access to the ocean. Surrounded by true neighbors, situated in an untouristed section of the Pemaquid peninsula 20 minutes from Damariscotta on a protected portion of Muscongus
