Marshall Point Cottage is a charming 2 bed/1bath cottage offering breathtaking ocean views and gorgeous, bold water frontage. The cottage was built circa 1910 by American artist and Arctic explorer, Russell W. Porter in the Lands End community of Port Clyde village (now incorporated as part of the town of St. George). Located just a short walk from the iconic Marshall Point Lighthouse & museum, the property features a newly drilled well and a new/expanded 3-bedroom septic system and has land on both sides of the road.
The existing, seasonal cottage (offered fully furnished) would make a wonderful summer vacation retreat. However, should you wish to do so, plans have already been professionally created and fully approved by the town to replace the existing cottage with a beautiful, new, and larger 3 bed/3 bath year-round 1,546 sf home.

If you do decide to build the new home, you would be welcome to (but not required to) preserve much of the historic nature of the original cottage while creating a significantly larger, new home boasting every modern convenience.
All site plans and blueprints for the new home option were prepared by a professional architect and will be made available to the new owner of this unique and magnificent oceanfront property. The project has been fully approved by both the town and the neighborhood.
Marshall Point Cottage is just a 15-20 min walk to the Monhegan Ferry Terminal, Village Ice Cream & Bake Shop, Red Barn Art Gallery, Port Clyde Fresh Catch, The Black Harpoon Restaurant, and Port Clyde Kayak Tours & Rentals. You may not even need to leave the peninsula with the wonderful nature preserves, fun hiking opportunities, Tenants Harbor General Store, and dining available at the East Wind Inn, all located within just a few minutes. However, the small city of Rockland, with its full array of shopping, wonderful galleries, hospital/medical center, and an excellent selection of restaurants is just 30 minutes away.
This property, offered at $850,000, is available immediately, and can be shown at your convenience. If interested, please contact John at 207-370-8894.
