Built in 2004, ''Seabox Cottage'' is a graceful 3-bedroom, 3-full-bath home that offers elevated views of Islesboro Harbor and East Penobscot Bay. The home's Shingle and Colonial Revival design is based on 1894 plans by Fred L. Savage and Milton W. Stratton and intentionally echoes the design praised in 1895 as ''one of the prettiest cottages in town,'' nodding to the elegant turn-of-the-century cottages of Dark Harbor. When you arrive, the circular driveway, manicured gardens, and lawns complement the architecture. The home combines luxury and comfort, with radiant floors throughout, an impressive fieldstone fireplace in the first-floor living room, and a propane stove in the second-floor common room. The large chef's kitchen boasts soapstone countertops and sinks as well as a Viking range. The sunroom, perfect for dining, relaxing, or an office with a view, blends indoor and outdoor life as it flows out to the wrap-around, columned porch. The primary bedroom suite is a private sanctuary with a large ensuite bathroom featuring a luxurious soaking tub with a view and a spacious floor-to-ceiling tile shower. The suite includes an adjacent flexible space, ideal for a dressing room, workout room, or other use. Off the kitchen is a combined mudroom, laundry, and pantry. The property includes a garden shed with an electric car charger next to a dedicated space for an RV or camper. Comprised of 2 lots, it is served by 2 wells and 2 septic systems and boasts a proven rental history. Extensive updates, list can be shared on request.
