Best 4 best things about this property:

1. The house has the old-world island charm of the Maine of the 1950s.
2. The house is located in a quiet wooded setting perfect for families.
3. The house includes 2.6 acres of woodland leading down to the ocean.
4. There are many trails and activities in the area.

Unmatched in old-world elegance and simplicity, this 4 bedroom shingle style home lords over private oceanfront from its lichen covered stone foundation. Truly rare offering for the mid-coast with many alluring amenities including a sleeping porch, a screened eating porch, curved windows, woven shingle corners, massive sliding pocket doors and countless other historic elements as well. The property includes 2.6 wooded acres. The house has two full bathrooms, 4 bedrooms, a sleeping porch, an eat in porch and a game/TV room that can be used as a fifth bedroom. For chilly nights there is a wood stove in the main room . There is also a public ramp and dock on the Back River (perfect for kayaking) approximately 1 mile away. The house was built in 1913 as a guest lodge for Doggett Castle and much of the old-world charm of the house remains.

The property is just a short ride to Booth Bay Harbor, Pemaquid Point Lighthouse, Popham Beach State Park, Robinhood, Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, Oven's Mouth preserve, Bath and many more of Maines popular attractions and some of Maines best Lobster restaurants. There are also many hiking and biking trails in the area.

Please be aware that the house sits on top of hill requiring climbing a long staircase (see picture) and it is not handicap accessible. Also the kitchen is typical of a 1950s kitchen (no dishwasher and the appliances are not stainless steel, ok the gas stove is stainless steel, sorry about that).
