Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1974
This property has been in the family for years. We inherited it a couple of years ago and the entire place has been redone. Our kids love the crabbing, sailing, golfing, tennis, bike riding and general messing around. I'm sure yours will as well.
Why the Owner Chose Castine
Castine is a magical historic town with a long history of rusticators enjoying the best that the coast of Maine has to offer. Whether you are looking for a place where the kids can take sailing, golf and tennis lessons (no need to join a club, just show up and the cost is very reasonable), or a home base for exploring by kayak, boat, bike, or car, or just a quiet place for walking, cooking, and reading, you will love Castine. We do.
The Unique Benefits of this House
Our house is the red roofed one in the distance.
