The cottage has functioned as an in- law suite and a guest house. He paints in Studio #1. He stores his water-related gear in the Bait House and Engine Room, which stand on pilings over the pebbly beach and water.

The owner lives year-round in the 3-level Chalet with its living room, boat- like galley kitchen, and a bright sun room with wood stove. The cottage has functioned as an in- law suite and a guest house. He paints in Studio #1. He stores his water-related gear in the Bait House and Engine Room, which stand on pilings over the pebbly beach and water. His sauna is in one basement and his spacious workshop is in another. The dock accommodates his full-keel sailboat and has enhanced his personal lobstering hobby. He's preserved the property, formerly known by locals as Ben's Lobsters. He's taken advantage of the unique location to make for himself, his family, and his many interests a modern version of a coastal Maine compound.
