0 White Island Lot 14

Harpswell, ME 04079

There are places you visit, and places that seem to belong to another world. Lot 3 on White Island is one of them—a private, boat-access-only retreat where Middle Bay & Mere Point Bay meet with Harpswell Neck to the east & Mere Point to the west. With much of the island held in conservation, arriving here feels more like sharing an island with only a few close friends. Set on the island's southwest side, the gently sloping 3+ acre lot enjoys approximately 230 feet of west-facing waterfront, where evening light settles across the bay. Getting ashore is made easier with an existing float, ramp and dock shared with the neighboring lot. If you need to get heavy equipment to the island, this lot has the island's best west-side barge landing. The property also includes rights associated with a deep-water mooring in Mere Point Bay, subject to coordination with the harbormaster. For those ready to embrace island life now, an existing cabin, screened gazebo and outhouse/storage building provide the essentials for simple, off-grid summer living. Fresh water is supplied by a well shared with the two neighboring lots. At the island's high point, a broad, level clearing offers an inspiring setting for a future cottage or expanded seasonal retreat. A local arborist can guide you to thin selected mature trees to open up elevated water views while preserving the privacy and character of the island. Deer and wild turkeys regularly pass through, with ospreys and eagles soaring overhead. Stacked pressure-treated timbers and additional large pine timbers, already transported to the island, are included for possible future construction. Launch from the Brunswick public boat ramp, Paul's Marina, Smith's Boatyard, Harpswell's newest launch at Mitchell Field or Lookout Point, then leave the mainland behind. Spend your days boating, swimming, exploring the shoreline or simply watching the sun disappear. White Island offers the increasingly rare opportunity to own a real island.
