Property Description
New Listing! Waterfront estate known as ''Old Ferry House'', this elegant Federal home has stood proudly amidst its lush waterfront meadow for over 200 years. Still retaining its innate charm and craftsmanship of a bygone era, it has a separate 3 car Carriage House with living quarters above as well as a dock with boat moorings. 13 acres of beautiful fields surround the house and guesthouse with splendid views down to its 500' of deep water shore frontage.
Marvel at the gorgeous antique wide plank floors and wainscoting. Beautiful old doors and moulding details. There are fireplaces and a wonderfully campy seasonal barn room (where 4th bedroom is located) for summer entertaining and guest overflow. This home is utterly enchanting.
The southeast facing parcel of land is magnificent and offers privacy and farming opportunities. Water front area has a field road down to it, easily accessible via vehicle, with a picnic area, stairs to shore, dock system for your dinghy and kayaks with easy access to your boats on two moorings just beyond. Perfect for kayaking and boating at any tide.
Systems and major aspects of buildings are in good order and there is a building inspection report done by owners as a reference for prospective buyers, available by request.
Steeped in history, this was the home of Col. William B. Webber, a veteran of the American Revolution. The buckboard ferry to Brooksville operated on this shore, and the ticket office is still on the property.
Nostalgic, one of a kind, an instant heirloom.
This is a rare Castine iconic property.
Take note: Google Maps erroneously places Old Ferry Road too far north. On Google Maps this property's road is erroneously called 'Coverly'''.
