161 North Rd Matinicus Isle, ME 04851

Step away to the beauty and quiet of Matinicus Island. Situated over 20 miles off the coast of Midcoast Maine, this private 20-acre oceanfront compound features a year-round main house and a seasonal guest cottage, all set along 1,000 feet of bold oceanfront. The year-round main home, built in 1993, blends modern comforts with restored antique charm. A bright kitchen offers honed slate counters, an eat-in island, oak cabinetry, and tile floors. A Crawford cookstove anchors the dining room with red oak wainscoting. The back parlor includes a wood-burning fireplace and original mantel, while the living room features a built-in TV hutch and access to the curved-ceiling formal entry with black and white tile flooring. A curved tongue-and-groove ceiling continues to the second floor where four bedrooms offer charming period details, including a water-view primary bedroom and a third guest room with a boat-inspired daybed. A full bath with separate tub and shower and a half bath complete the upper level. Oak flooring runs throughout much of the living spaces. The seasonal guest cottage, completed in 2024, enjoys expansive ocean views from its oceanside deck. Inside: two bedrooms, two full baths, a full kitchen, dining area, living room, and a clever under-stair built-in daybed. An outdoor shower and a rolling lawn lead to the bold shore and a firepit with panoramic northwestern ocean views, perfect for unforgettable sunsets. Attached and freestanding barns, a garden shed, and a small pond complete this exceptional island retreat.
