Description
Offered for the first time in over 100 years, this 22 acre waterfront property on Gerrish Island in Kittery Point is a rare opportunity to create a legacy estate along one of Maine's most scenic coastlines. With 1,136 feet of private sandy beach, sweeping westerly views, and a setting rich in history, this land captures the timeless spirit of coastal New England. The estate became a treasured gathering place for a family whose history spans centuries, with connections to the U. S. House of Representatives,...Offered for the first time in over 100 years, this 22 acre waterfront property on Gerrish Island in Kittery Point is a rare opportunity to create a legacy estate along one of Maine's most scenic coastlines. With 1,136 feet of private sandy beach, sweeping westerly views, and a setting rich in history, this land captures the timeless spirit of coastal New England. The estate became a treasured gathering place for a family whose history spans centuries, with connections to the U. S. House of Representatives, Ambassador service, and the American printing industry. It reflects the era when wealthy industrialists sought to establish themselves in this exclusive enclave. Many of the family's fondest memories were made here, as generations spent their summers in Maine. Each year, grandchildren and great-grandchildren eagerly anticipated their visits, enjoying swimming and boating, beachcombing along the shore, and hiking at nearby Fort Foster. With extensive frontage and acreage, the property offers truly stunning, uninterrupted 180-degree views. To the south lies New Castle Beach and Portsmouth Harbor Lighthouse, the southwest features sightlines of Pepperrell Cove and Fort McClary, and looking southeast you'll find Whaleback Lighthouse, the Wood Island Life Saving Station, and Odiorne Point State Park. 17 acres are protected by a conservation easement, preserving the natural character of the property and ensuring significant privacy, while 5 acres of upland positioned along the waterfront are available for new construction or thoughtful expansion. Only 10 minutes from Portsmouth International Airport and less than an hour to both Boston and Portland, this location offers exceptional privacy, natural beauty, and convenience. Ideally positioned between the upscale lifestyle offerings of Portsmouth and Ogunquit, this is more than a property; it is the foundation for creating a truly exceptional estate that will be cherished for generations.
