Discover a rare coastal offering at this beautifully restored circa-1815 Saltwater Estate overlooking the protected waters of Benjamin River Harborage. Featuring 551 feet of protected waterfront with direct access to the renowned Eggemoggin Reach, celebrated worldwide for its legendary sailing waters, this remarkable property captures the very essence of coastal Maine living.
Meticulously renovated and thoughtfully updated, the iconic Greek Revival Cape and its impressive two-story attached barn are gracefully situated on 17.3 acres of rolling pasture and woodland, offering privacy, tranquility, and breathtaking water views from multiple vantage points.
Inside, the home blends historic character with modern comfort. Five spacious bedrooms, three full baths, two half baths, and a generously sized laundry room provide ample space for family and guests alike. Sun-filled living spaces, inviting fireplaces, and carefully curated finishes create a warm and timeless atmosphere throughout. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered, resulting in a turnkey residence ready for immediate enjoyment.
Outside, the expansive farmer's porch overlooks your protected harbor anchorage, the perfect setting for morning coffee or evening sunsets. Launch a kayak directly from your private shoreline or set sail from the existing mooring, which will convey with the property.
Ideally located between Blue Hill and Deer Isle, this peaceful coastal retreat offers convenient access to exceptional dining, shopping, galleries, and outdoor recreation.
Properties of this caliber, with such a rare combination of history, acreage, protected waterfront, and refined renovation, seldom come to market. Consider the opportunity to make this stunning Saltwater Estate your family's next Maine retreat.
