29 Wadsworth Street, Thomaston, ME 04861

Private and tucked away in the center of Thomaston proper, sits a neat and tidy red house with forever views of the St. George River, Thomaston Harbor and over to the St. George Peninsula. Its situated on a bucolic 2.23-acre pristine and manicured grassy parcel framed by stonewalls, forsythia hedges, fruit trees and fields of wildflowers. When a house has been treated like a member of a loving family, it shows - this house has had only one owner and it was the very man who built it and raised his family there. Caring for the house and the property was a point of pride and the love that every member of that family poured into their treasured home remains evident to this day. You don't often find houses like 29 Wadsworth - so well built and so sturdy. It's unpretentious and uncomplicated and that's part of the charm. And you will be charmed by the setting...it is simply breathtaking. Elevated, the lot gives you a bird's eye view up and down the river; this saltwater river flows between the Cushing and St. George Peninsulas where it ultimately meets the open ocean. A driveway winds from the main road to the house and you'll never, ever know you are in the middle of town - until you decide to take a stroll to Thomaston's delightful Main Street to shop at the Thomaston Grocery, take in a lecture at the Thomaston Public Library or visit with a friend at the Thomaston Café. This sweet town is truly walkable and the strolls through historic neighborhoods never disappoint in any season. The waterfront is alive and bustling with the Slipway Restaurant (not to be missed) daysailers, fishing boats, newly launched yachts built by the world-famous Lyman Morse Boat Builders - the public landing offers a place from which to fish, kayak or launch a smaller boat for day trips down the St. George River to visit Tenants Harbor or Port Clyde. Rockland and Camden are both less than 20 minutes away and the regional airport in nearby Owls Head, with service to Boston, makes access easy.
