The property includes an architect-designed house, and a covered walkway connects the house to a versatile garage / boathouse with a guest apartment above it. Distinctive details such as a pitched roof and spacious decks lend the buildings a somewhat Asian aspect in their exterior refinements. The interior of the home has one bedroom with striking views, and it is finely finished with bamboo wood floors and sleek, elegant living spaces. The guest apartment, located on the second floor of the garage / boathouse, has a bedroom-sitting area with an enclosed kitchen and a full bath. Wide doors at either end of the garage / boathouse can accommodate a car or boat, or both. The home is surrounded mostly by mature spruce trees and there is a lovely, symmetrical Zen-themed Garden planted with birches, Japanese maples, pines and dwarf non-invasive bamboo, all well-established. A stairway of stone steps leads to 200± feet of shorefront with a pocket beach on Wheeler Bay, where a boat can be kept and launched. Rackliff Island is a friendly neighborhood community in Saint George, accessible by causeway year-round, and convenient to the towns of Port Clyde and Rockland.
