Matinicus is Maine's most remote populated island. If you are someone who is looking for solitude this could be for you. History shows that in the mid 1700s the island was a French outpost for drying fish. The abenaki tribe may have been there hunting and fishing even earlier and hence names the island Matinicus meaning ''Far Out Place:. Spanning 750 acres its' shoreline offers broad vistas, white sand beaches, and a harbor of lobster boats and fish houses. This island home is still in original form with an antique feeling front hall and staircase, wooden floors, classic trim, dining room builtins. Three bedrooms and full bath on the second floor. The land itself has an open field and would probably be great for gardening. Additional workshop would be great for a fisherman or anyone looking for a studio. The Island's beauty speaks for itself and its' untamed charm.
