Inquire for details. Located 5.5 miles up the Bagaduce River from Penobscot Bay and Castine, this one-of-a-kind home sits on over 10 acres of woodlands and fields with 600' of waterfront on the dynamic Johnson Point Narrows. Harbors seals swim through the ever-changing tidal current to sun themselves on nearby granite ledges.
