Located in the village of Five Islands on the island of Georgetown in mid-coast Maine, this charming Greek Revival cape has been completely renovated and is available for weekly as well as a winter rental.
Built in the 1840s, it was the homestead of Almon L. Marr and wife Clara (Lewis) Marr and their five children. The house had left family ownership, but was purchased in 1998 by Almon and Clara's great-great-grandson, an accomplished boatbuilder and craftsman. It was he who completely restored the homestead, finding the striking Greek Revival details from the mid-nineteenth century under attempts to modernize the structure. Artefacts of Mr. Marr's career as first mate on many coastal schooners remain in the house today.
The home has been tastefully decorated to provide a cozy atmosphere. The two bedrooms, located upstairs, each have a full-size bed with linens and towels provided. The full bath, also upstairs, includes a combination washer/dryer.
May 01-Nov 01 .. $975/week.
