Pumpkin Point is located on Rackliff Island, which is part of the Tenants Harbor and St. George Peninsula. Pumpkin Point overlooks the wide, open ocean and the outer islands on the horizon, Spruce Head Island to the left and Clark Island to the right. You will see lobster boats, sailboats, kayakers, and cruising boats working their way around the Mussel Ridge Channel. Offering an ideal blend of seclusion and close proximity to nearby activities, you'll never want to leave.
Pumpkin Point was designed and built to bring its unique and striking waterfront location indoors – floor-to-ceiling windows, warm wood abounds and a soaring fireplace, built from the very granite surrounding the island, is the mainstay of the family room. Outdoor living spaces are found on each floor – a covered outdoor dining area, a sprawling deck at the front of the house as well as two private decks on the second floor. There are views from virtually every room and they are as ever-changing as the tides.
The home sits on a small point. On one side, the lawn leads to a private wharf and smooth granite ledge dipping down to the water, while an easily accessible sandy beach dotted with tide pools is on the other. Go boating and fishing from the wharf in the morning and then spend the afternoon with your toes in warm sand reading a good book.
Inside, the main floor has a spacious family room with a fireplace and a large, well-equipped kitchen with a dining area to seat all of your guests. Both these rooms have access to the front deck via French doors. The high ceilings, complemented by the abundance of natural light, creates a homey ambience you're sure to appreciate. Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a large game room with a regulation-sized pool table, a minibar, a cozy conversation area overlooking the water, and a multi-purpose room. Be sure to make your way through one of the bedrooms to the private, rooftop deck with a bistro set. Photos of the views from this elevated deck don't do it justice!
Pumpkin Point allows you to experience Maine – the real Maine which is precious for all that it is.
