Description
'Snippershins', one of Vinalhaven's most iconic and publicized properties on Carver's Harbor, is located at the end of Clam Shell Alley, a quiet single lane street dotted with classic architecture and wharfs showcasing the island's working waterfront. The prime harbor location offers all the features one would expect from a property with a longstanding maritime and working waterfront history--a deepwater dock, expansive ocean views, and a year-round 1870s home with historic outbuildings.

The prime harbor location offers all the features one would expect from a property with a longstanding maritime and working waterfront history--a deepwater dock, expansive ocean views, and a year-round 1870s home with historic outbuildings. The property also has a spacious 2 car garage with heated studio above, and the village location is a short walk to restaurants, shops, the public library, and lovely Lane's Island Preserve. The year-round residence is not in the flood zone and includes three stories of living space --a kitchen, dining room, 4-season sunroom/living room, laundry, and full bath on the first floor; 3 bedrooms and a full bath on the 2nd level, and a bonus room on the top floor previously used as an office. Outside is a lovely lawn with an impressive 58' dock and float system, two small outbuildings, and a large heated studio above a two-car garage. The property has high speed internet and options for a home office with a wonderful ocean view in the studio or third floor of the residence. There are only a few properties on Carver's Harbor that include a deepwater dock, year-round home, and multiple outbuildings. A very rare opportunity for a boater, family, or individual who enjoys the special community of Vinalhaven.
