Description

Nestled along the quiet shores of Mill River and facing a large nature preserve, this serene 1.8 acre waterfront property offers a rare fusion of coastal island charm and Nordic simplicity. Swim off smooth granite rocks, kayak in protected coves, boat from your private dock to the open ocean, have lobster dinners in the gazebo, sip coffee on the waterside deck, rinse off in the outdoor shower after hiking one of the many nearby trails, or take a warm sauna after a cold plunge.

Swim off smooth granite rocks, kayak in protected coves, boat from your private dock to the open ocean, have lobster dinners in the gazebo, sip coffee on the waterside deck, rinse off in the outdoor shower after hiking one of the many nearby trails, or take a warm sauna after a cold plunge. This property captures the essence of a Nordic coast retreat in the heart of Penobscot Bay. Lovingly cared for by the same family since 1993, the simple two room summer cottage was built in 1997 and expanded in 2002 creating its current 1700 sq. ft. design. The floor plan includes a kitchen with a seating area, spacious dining/living/sitting room, ensuite primary bedroom, guest bedroom, and bath/laundry. All one floor living except the cozy loft above the kitchen. The home is crafted with clean lines, warm wood accents, and large windows that frame ocean views and bring in light and the beauty of the outdoors. Its neutral airy palette combined with minimal yet cozy furnishings reflects the relaxed Maine island lifestyle. Steps away is a separate 25' x 15' building used as a home office with flex space that, like the main house, emphasizes functionality, clean design, and a connection to the outdoors. It has two large rooms plus a half bath, and would be a wonderful writing, music, or art studio. Nearby is a screened-in gazebo overlooking the ocean-- a perfect spot for sunset views, lobster dinners, and enjoying the sounds of nature. Whether you're looking for a primary residence or a seasonal escape, this is more than just a property—it's an invitation to live slowly and intentionally, attuned to the tides and seasons, and all the quiet pleasures island living offers. (The property is furnished and ready to be enjoyed this summer. )
