Available for the first time in a quarter century, this rare coastal retreat encompasses 51 private acres with nearly a mile of frontage along the Sheepscot River.
Step back in time as the meandering dirt drive, lined with mature oak trees and vintage stone walls, draws you to the meadow's edge and sweeping views of the river. Over 40 acres of your own private, magical wooded trails wander down the peninsula to a rocky point where seals frolic offshore and bald eagles perch above the water.
Heading toward the water, you will pass the writing cottage, saltwater pool, and pool house. Next is the 3-bedroom, 3-bath antique Cape house from the 1800s, thoughtfully updated to honor its heritage while providing modern amenities. Exercising judicious design restraint, the owners added a new kitchen, upgraded the pantry, and refreshed all three bathrooms. The new heated saltwater pool and its pine-scented pool house offer hours of entertainment for all ages. The second writing studio, designed by Snyder and Cheng, sits at the water's edge, offering a quiet space for music, writing, storage, or creative retreat.
The deepwater dock, a coveted feature for boaters, offers 8 to 9 feet of depth at mean low water and will welcome most boats. Vessels requiring more depth can swing on the mooring at 28 feet. The protected waterfront also invites quieter days on the water, offering easy access for kayaking, canoeing, and exploring the Sheepscot River at your own pace. Boaters can enjoy a remarkable network of rivers, coves, and island passages, with easy access to open water and the sea beyond.
A true legacy offering with thoughtful conservation easements to ensure its quality for generations. The current owners chose understated simplicity, allowing the natural setting to remain the defining luxury: woods, wildlife, salt air, and the ever changing tides of the saltwater river.
