Property Description

Steeped in history and beautifully restored, this exceptional Swan's Island retreat is a rare coastal offering where timeless New England charm meets refined modern living. Featuring two separate homes with a combined 3,013± square feet of living space, this unique property offers exceptional flexibility for guests, multigenerational living, or other permitted uses. Both homes are currently operated as successful short-term rentals through Airbnb, providing an established income-producing opportunity. Buyers are encouraged to verify continued use with local regulations. The main home features three bedrooms, an updated bathroom, and a beautifully designed eat-in kitchen with granite countertops, commercial-grade stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, and designer lighting. The second home also features a beautifully appointed kitchen with premium finishes, creating an equally inviting space for everyday living or entertaining. Outside, enjoy an expansive deck, hot tub, and a fully fenced side yard. The exterior of the yellow home was freshly painted in July 2026. A charming widow's walk and cupola capture picturesque harbor views, while nearby fine sand beaches, the waterfront, and the island lighthouse make it east to enjoy the best of coastal Maine. Beautifully restored while preserving its historic character, this one-of-a-kind property seamlessly blends classic New England character with thoughtful modern updates, creating an extraordinary island retreat unlike any other.
