About This Home

As of October 2024

Stately and Meticulously Preserved 1849 Historic Home on Southport Island
Nestled in a serene, park-like setting, this meticulously preserved circa 1849 home offers a rare blend of historic charm and modern comfort. With 330 feet of deep water frontage and expansive long views, this property invites you to embrace the quintessential coastal Maine lifestyle. Imagine spending summer days on your private dock, swimming with family, or watching your dog frolic in the pristine waters. Located minutes to downtown Boothbay Harbor.
The main residence boasts a flexible floor plan, ideal for multi-generational living. Inside, you'll find four working fireplaces, perfect for cozying up with a book or sharing stories on a crisp evening. The large and handsome barn, a standout feature of the property, provides an exceptional space for entertaining guests, setting up a studio, or pursuing your creative passions. A separate 752-square-foot guest house offers privacy and comfort for visitors or extended family. Outdoors, your family will relish meals on the stone patio with breathtaking views or enjoy a friendly game of pool in the dedicated pool room.
For your convenience, the property includes a garage with space for three cars or a boat, ensuring your
vehicles and watercraft are well-protected during the winter months. Despite the grandeur of this estate, the property benefits from low-cost maintenance and Southport's attractively low property
taxes. This is more than just a home; it's a sanctuary where history, nature, and modern living seamlessly
converge.
