Deer Isle Real Estate

Overview

Deer Isle and Stonington are both located on Deer Isle, a quintessential Maine island, accessible by automobile over a suspension bridge. Fishing and lobstering are still the mainstays of the local economy in many of the island's idyllic villages. The Maine coast real estate of Stonington and Deer Isle (with a combined population of just about 4,000) offers art galleries, shops, restaurants, inns, and pretty harbors. The village of Sunset includes the Barred Nature Preserve and a number of attractive, historic residences with westerly views. For over a century, the island has attracted artists, craftspeople, writers, sailors and summer vacationers, drawn to the area for its incredible natural beauty, privacy, and traditional way of life.
