If being on the water and being on boats are a major part of your life this 1.3 acre lot may be what you have looking for. With a successful boatyard next door you will always have a place to store and launch your boat that is close enough so that you can walk to work on it when it isn't in the water. This lot is one of the few remaining buildable spots on Rutherford Island that is near the harbor without actually being on the harbor. A nice level and wide section in the middle is potential spot for your home with lots of mature trees to protect your privacy as well as a 16' right of way to the harbor. Set on a private road of attractive waterfront homes and a short walk or bike ride to Christmas Cove, Coveside Restaurant, a lobster co-op and 2 public docks you will be in the heart of South Bristol's active waterfront and summer community. With its location at the end of the peninsula, Rutherford Island is the perfect homeport for your exploration of the Maine coast and beyond. South Bristol is not only known as having an active working waterfront and vibrant summer community it is also known for its low property taxes. So drive down to the village, wait for the boats to pass through the gut, the drawbridge to lower and check out this spot to make it the new mooring for your marine adventures.
