This is an incredible opportunity to own a former boat builder's property on Indian Creek, a protected cove off Carver's Harbor. The year-round house was built near the water's edge in the 1920s by Finnish boatbuilder, Albert Holmstrom. In 2008 the residence was updated and includes new systems, cedar siding, asphalt roofing shingles, insulation, two new bathrooms, and more. Four bedrooms, fir flooring, new appliances, nice natural light, and water views from most rooms. A separate building, the "Red Shed", was the original 1890s homestead that was reconstructed using original beams. It now serves as an ideal space for a studio or overflow sleeping. The piece de resistance is the magnificent boathouse, a large shingled building with wharf, wooden ramp and railway, aluminum ramp and float, and of course plenty of room for boat building and storage. A fabulous location near the village and two land preserves. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Vinalhaven's boatbuilding history.
