About this home

NEW PHOTOS, DRONE IMAGES, AND 3D VIRTUAL TOUR NOW POSTED!! Own a piece of history! One of the oldest houses on the island still in use as a residence. Thought to be built as a small summer cottage around 1830, it was more than doubled in size around 1910. Perched above the working waterfront, the Captain's House offers phenomenal views of Lunt Harbor, Atlantic Ocean, and MDI. On a clear night you can even see headlights climbing Cadillac Mountain. Life on Frenchboro is still much like it was 200 years ago. Come for a week or come for the summer and soak up all the peace and quiet you can. Get out and hike the trails of the Maine Coast Heritage Trust lands that abut the property. The island is serviced by the Maine DOT ferry service, but if you have your own boat, even better! Take advantage of the mooring that is included in the purchase.
