About This Home

As of July 2015

With the Sheepscot on one side and Back River on the other, beautiful Westport Island is home to generations and new residents alike. The island has tremendous privacy despite being only a few miles from Route One. This 1870's cape with ell on approximately 3 acres was once a working farm with apple trees; a showplace. Surrounded by fields, the back of the house faces west with a beautiful field rolling to 305 feet on the Back River. Yes, it needs work, but what an opportunity to create your own paradise.
