    What's special

    Located on a year-round Casco Bay island, a 45-minute ferry ride from Portland, this four-season home sits on nearly 1.5 acres with unobstructed views of conservation land, crashing seas, and historic lighthouses. The main living areas are situated on the second level to take full advantage of the views of the open ocean and rugged shoreline. Step out the front door onto the covered porch and 500 feet to the best beach on the eastern seaboard: South Beach (State Beach). Built in 1998, the home provides 2544 SQ FT of flexible living space. On the first floor are three bedrooms, a large living area, and a four-season sun room (or bedroom) with direct access to a deck, a full bath, and laundry room, rooftop solar panels provide hot water. On the upper level, find an open kitchen, dining and living areas, and a cozy place to read or work. The master bedroom, bath, and large pantry are also located on the second level. Step out onto the second-level deck from the living area or the master bedroom, greet the day, and track the night sky. A 384 square foot detached workshop/garage provides extra flexibility with wood stove heating. This building has potential as an artists studio or a guest house. Since Long Island's incorporation in 1993, residents have increased services and stabilized taxes. Long Island enjoys a low tax rate for its amenities, compared to other Casco Bay Islands.

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
