Description

Rarely does a property like this become available in Islesboro's storied and much-loved summer colony, Sabbathday Harbor. Perfectly sited, up high on the shores of East Penobscot Bay, this classic cottage offers sweeping easterly water views extending to Cape Rosier and approximately 100 feet of bold, accessible shoreline. The first floor features a living room with a wood stove and doors that open to a spacious water view deck, a functional galley kitchen, and a full bath. The generous wrap-around deck provides the perfect vantage point for sunrise coffee, afternoon reading, or evening gatherings with the bay as your backdrop. Upstairs, three charming bedrooms capture the light and sea breezes. A separate simple structure could make for a fun getaway space. Steeped in tradition and rich in natural beauty, this property invites you to create lasting memories for generations to come in one of Maine's most cherished summer enclaves.
