T
he private, four-acre property at 1 Clark's Island in Plymouth is a rare gem that has been on the market for $1.495 million for the first time in nearly 90 years. Built by a ship captain in 1890, this Colonial-style home boasts five bedrooms and 2,960 square feet of living space. Perched on a ledge overlooking Duxbury Bay, it offers breathtaking views from all primary rooms.
The property is only accessible by boat, adding to its secluded charm. The interior features a spacious entertaining room with rustic character, including bookshelves, a stone fireplace, and two pianos. The kitchen has an old wood-burning stove alongside modern appliances, while the primary bedroom boasts a bay window with curved windows offering stunning water views.
The property is being sold furnished, but its rustic nature may not be for everyone. It's not winterized, and the bathroom features a composting toilet. However, the seasonal dock accommodates a 21-foot boat, making it easily accessible by sea. The owners' decision to sell was difficult, but they felt it was time to pass on this extraordinary property that has been in their family for nearly a century.
The home's exterior and interior spaces are showcased through photographs, highlighting its unique character and stunning views of the bay. With only 11 homes on the island, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of history and experience the tranquility of life on Clark's Island.
