The Station, built in 1880, was once known as the US Coast Guard Life Saving Station on Little Cranberry Island, one of the archipelago islands off Mount Desert Island. The Station was strategically located on a prominent south facing point of land, with outstanding open views to the Atlantic, the thrum cap, also known as the Green Nubble, and Bakers Island, where watchmen looked for ships in distress and manned lifeboats to save them. The Green Nubble has 1.5 acres which is also part of this property. Decommissioned and privately owned since 1946, The Station, offered furnished, now has been attractively renovated and updated for a three-bedroom residence, with living and dining areas, updated kitchen, large granite fireplace, dramatic viewing tower bedroom with 360-degree views, and an oversized wrap-around deck surrounded by a granite boulder seawall. In addition to The Station, there is a two-bedroom guesthouse with three-car garage, small kitchen, loft living area and two full baths, discreetly distant from the main house but easily accessed. The Station offers 12.5 acres with approximately 2,000' of shorefront. A conservation easement protects the surrounding lands and ensures a natural environment. Included with this offering is The Boathouse and Dock, located a mile and a half away 'in town' on Sand Beach Road in Islesford, providing easy access to the mainland for private use. The Boathouse is located on 0.13 of an acre with 45' of waterfront and includes a recently constructed deepwater dock large enough to accommodate a car or golf cart and three moorings. There is a deeded right of use of one side of the float, so buyer would have private use of one side of the float for their own use, with the front held open for pick up and drop offs. Rarely do properties with this captivating appeal and unique character come on the market.
