About This Home
Plum Point Cottage: Contemporary Island Home set on a hill with Breathtaking Ocean Views. Wake up to island life at Plum Point Cottage, a coastal retreat designed by Architect Christopher Glass.
With 400+/- feet of rocky waterfront, this contemporary island setting offers stunning sunrises over Bounty Cove and Penobscot Bay from your private deck.
The first floor welcomes you with a small mud room and features an open-concept kitchen and dining area with new marble tile floors, a living room with built-ins, and a mechanical room with laundry.
Enjoy more ocean views from the spacious second floor including a family room with more built-ins and a wet bar and two bedrooms with a full bath.
Watch the moon rise though the 'moon window' during the winter solstice; the moon light will shine through and fill the foyer with light. Enjoy star gazing at night through the sky lights and Venus rising in the morning. The sun deck matches the roof line providing full shade during the summer solstice.
A detached two-car garage with new garage doors provides ample space for cars, small boats or a workshop, with stairs leading to a large unfinished storage area above.
Rest easy knowing that the roof on the house and garage was recently shingled, the exterior of both buildings was vapor blasted and painted, all new PDQ doors and Marvin windows have been recently installed along with 3 new insulated garage doors. The house is well insulated with walls that are 1 foot think.
This 2.7+/- acre property has a natural landscape inner mixed with the remains of old cutting gardens above the rocky coastline and a private beach, offering your own island escape. Stay connected with 1 gibibyte upload and download speed fiber optic internet.
The beautiful island of Islesboro is a 20-minute ride from the mainland town of Lincolnville, accessed by a public car ferry, water taxi or private boat or small airplane.
