"Yonder is the great and wide sea with its living things too many to number" Castaway is a reinvented classic Cape style home partially built upon the remaining, large-stone foundation of a 200 year old early settler?s homestead before the blue waters of beautiful Mahone Bay. The house consists of the original Cape, a newer great room addition at the rear, an adjacent attached double garage with family room in the loft, and a connecting front foyer acting as a breezeway between the garage and main body of the house. As one enters the front foyer, one is struck by the unusual angles and natural light sources with exposed beams and unexpected architectural detail. A staircase to the left, with its gentle rise, is incised with the inspirational words from Psalm 104:26 and leads through double French doors to a great room with this home?s, prime vantage point looking out to sea. Returning to the entry hall there is a water closet tucked discreetly to one side with a small closet opposite for hanging coats. As one enters the older body of the house there is a dining-room with gas fireplace to the front and a generous sized eat-in kitchen to the rear. Off the kitchen in the rear extension is a large living room bathed in western light. The principal bedroom suite is at the northeastern corner of the house with two generous sized closets and 5-piece bathroom. The personal bath also opens onto a small office/library space which has an alternate door to the living-room at the rear. The upstairs consists of two bedrooms off a central hall leading to a shared family bath. From the front bedroom in the eaves, one enters a diminutive mezzanine reading corner which looks out through a skylight to the bay. This home has exceptional millwork, all in solid wood displaying superior craftmanship. Most floors are wide pine plank, and this design in its uniqueness is unlike anything in the country. The home has lovely water views and a warm welcoming spirit.

Along with the direct oceanfront property, there is a mooring installed. Additionally, lots of gardens bloom in the spring and summer months. Inside there are three large bedrooms, currently setup to sleep 9 people. Two full bathrooms and one half bathroom. There are two propane fireplaces, a wood stove and a wood fireplace. Three heat pumps provide heating and air conditioning.

The house is over 3000 square feet (279 square meters) and sits on almost 60,000 square feet (5575 square meters) of land. There are two lots included with the purchase, as seen in the photos, lot 970 where the house sits and the adjacent large lot 3.

This house is move in ready, comes completely furnished including all linens. The commanding and unobstructed view of Mahone Bay will have you entranced.
Recent renovations include a new laundry room with two washers/dryers, new septic system, spray foam insulation, rock walls to create additional parking, new hot water tank, hot tub and outdoor shower (hot and cold water).

Lots of photos and video available.
