Overview

Description

Believed to be one of the island's oldest houses, this historic Vinalhaven cape sits on its 1.6-acre private peninsula just outside the village. Life here offers not only a charming antique home, but also 1,000 feet of ocean frontage, your own fish house and wharf, and a newly-built shed for a studio, storage space, or whatever your heart desires. Situated on quiet E Boston Road, the entire property feels like a welcome step back in time. Inside, the kitchen, dining, and living rooms all overlook the ocean, with a cozy fireplace anchoring the main living space. The surrounding stonewall-lined property is as picturesque as they come; enjoy vibrant sunsets from the deck, and in the summer, find shore roses lining the sweeping lawn leading down to the water. This is a place that leaves a lasting impression. Come and see for yourself!
