113 West Side Road, South Bristol, ME 04568 Represented by Thomas Field Summer Cottage. When you hear that what do you think of? A place on the ocean where you can sit in the cool shade of the porch to relax and unwind while your boat sits at the dock waiting to take you out to the islands and coves of Midcoast Maine? Watching brilliantly colored sunsets from a chair on your dock while you smell the lobsters cooking on the rocks down by the shore? People have been coming to Rutherford Island in South Bristol to ”get away from it all” ever since getting away from it all became a thing. The idea of a summer cottage was practically invented here. Perched on the eastern shore of the Damariscotta River this summer home with guest house is the perfect place to forget about everything that isn’t important so you can focus on what is. Making memories with family and friends that last for generations and keeps bringing you back for more. In the main house there is the kitchen, living room, office/utility room, a bedroom and a sleeping loft as well as a huge covered porch with views to the south and west. The wraparound deck leads you to the guesthouse in one direction or down to the dock and very rare sandy beach in another. Summer homes on the island don’t come on the market often because they end up staying in the same family for generations or are sold to neighbors who need more room. When everything else changes a summer home can be the one constant that you look forward to coming back to year after year.
