Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose St. George
We have owned the property since 1982. Originally, we built a small camp on the 1.6 acre lot that we used for a weekend retreat for many years. In 2006 we removed the camp from the property and build a 32'x 36' eventual retirement home. Currently, we live some distance from St. George and decided to rent the property during the summer months.
The Unique Benefits of this House
Privacy and the location on the water (300 foot frontage) are the main reasons we bought the property. Swimming in front of the home is also an added benefit. There are only 7 other properties on the private road which adds to quiet nature of the area.

What a delightful home and gracious hosts! The house was clean, well appointed, modern and comfortable within 15 minutes from downtown Rockland-We spent many hours on the sun filled decks taking in the beautiful view of the St. George River. Close to Miller's lobster pound on rte.73, Cod End restaurant in Tenants Harbor and the ferry to Monhegan Island. Peaceful and relaxing, would definitely stay again!
Recommended for:Adventure seekers, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

This is a beautiful waterfront home on the St. George River. The views of the river are spectacular. The house is tastefully appointed and the architecture gives it a spacious, open feel which we enjoyed. We had everything we needed and more. The house is very quiet, located at the end of a private drive. We did not spend much time at the house because we were out touring Maine, but we found it a delightful place to "come home to." We would welcome an opportunity to return there.
