Lot #5 Birch Island, Harpswell, ME, 04079
Create your own private, off-grid retreat in scenic Duck Cove on Birch Island—nestled in the heart of Casco Bay with panoramic views of the Goslings and Whaleboat Island. This elevated, 1.84-acre south-facing oceanfront lot offers rare seclusion and natural beauty, bordered by 40 acres of conservation land and overlooking protected, non-buildable shoreline across the cove—ensuring enduring peace and privacy. Located on the southern end of Birch Island, Harpswell, the property is one of only 10 parcels within the Birch Island South Association. Residents enjoy access to a shared dock (directly adjacent to this property) and mooring field in Duck Cove, offering convenient private boat access from multiple nearby launch points, including Brunswick Public Boat Launch, Paul's Marina, and Lookout Point in Harpswell. Access to the lot includes a 6-foot-wide shoreline path above the high water mark, as well as a 20-foot inland easement that provides another access point to the property and allows for the use of construction vehicles in certain months. Owners can drill a private well or connect to the island's pump house, which is tested annually for water quality. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Maine's coastline. Whether you envision a classic Maine cottage or a secluded coastal retreat, this exceptional parcel offers the perfect setting to embrace the quiet beauty and outdoor lifestyle of Casco Bay.
