About this home
Quintessential island getaway with just a five-minute leisurely walk to a pebble beach and former steamboat landing, where you are rewarded with panoramic views of Penobscot Bay, Castine and Dice Head Light. Let time slow down in this inviting property, a perfect place for relaxing or working remotely. A welcoming space overlooking a sweeping lawn and pleasant water views, established plantings, heirloom apple trees, and a fern covered forest with mature cedar trees. Awake in rooms with beautiful morning light and birdsong, prepare meals in a bright and airy kitchen, and then wind down on the deck for a tranquil sunset. This home echoes the past, having housed two generations of a long-time island family and once stood across the street from the Pripet Post Office - an integral part of the island's history. A solid built modern garage and updated expansive second floor bath are pleasing additions to this period home that offers refinished wood floors, wide wood moldings throughout, and original doors with vintage details and hardware. A unique opportunity, this property showcases traditional island living and is ready for you to start creating your own memories.
