In 1879, when Captain Elliot Gamage built his Mansard-roofed Second Empire house, South Bristol, Maine was a quiet, coastal village. He picked a location where he could watch over his father's boat building operations and his own boats coming and going through the Gut - the narrow passage and harbor between the Damariscotta River and John's Bay.
South Bristol has not changed much in 119 years. Captain Gamage's home, Anodyne House, is available to rent by the week. Come and enjoy the quiet life of South Bristol and mid-coast Maine. Anodyne House, located 150 feet from the shore, has nine rooms, five bedrooms, sleeps nine, two-and-one-half baths, a large porch with screened pavilion, Victorian decor, central heat, private yard with wonderful flower gardens, all the amenities, and the use of a ten-foot row boat and a recreational kayak. |
