About This Home

As of November 2015

Absolutely delightful shingle style year round cottage overlooking Rockland Harbor and the Breakwater Lighthouse. Newly constructed in 2002, very well appointed kitchen, living room with fireplace, and fantastic covered deck with endless views to the islands in Penobscot Bay. Nestled on a quiet side street amongst a number of similarly attractive cottages. Access to the shore over a common set of stairs on Cottage Avenue. Watch your boat in the harbor from the privacy of your own home
