    118 Wescott Battery is a spectacular waterfront estate in Castine, encompassing 40.3± acres, 915± feet of shorefront on the Bagaduce River, and stunning panoramic views. The main residence is an exceptional, custom-designed contemporary farmhouse with handsome proportions and a wraparound porch. Perfectly orientated to capture views of the water from every room, the main home's aesthetic blends contemporary and historic details in a pleasing combination. The formal living room is surrounded by doors and windows that open directly to the porch while exposed wood beams, wide-board wood floors, and a granite, wood-burning fireplace complement the surrounding natural landscape. There is a formal dining room with custom millwork and a charming 'game room' that could be an additional bedroom. The second floor of the home is dedicated entirely to the primary bedroom suite with a his/her bath, an office or sitting room, and good closet space. An in-law apartment over the garage and a substantial finished basement offer versatility. Accessed by a long, winding drive through open meadows dotted with small ponds, the bucolic landscape unfolds in rolling fields to the water, with mature trees and an apple orchard. A dock with ramp and float on the Bagaduce River completes this unique offering. The property contains the remnants of the historic habitat of Castine's namesake, Baron Saint-Castin and a portion of the property is subject to a Preservation and Conservation Easement held by the Blue Hill Heritage Trust.
