Knowlton Place is a sweet little oceanside neighborhood tucked along the shores of Penobscot Bay, where Owls Head meets Rockland. Quiet and private with a true beachy feel, this coveted spot offers two deeded rights of way to the water and beach. It's the kind of place where you can step out your front door on a whim and find a warm rock to watch the day come to a close. It feels like bare feet, gardens, long late-summer afternoons, a walk to Primo, or a bike ride to Rockland's vibrant Main Street.
2 Knowlton Place sits on a large lot with views of Rockland Harbor and is just waiting for you to envision your life here. The house currently offers 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, but could easily be returned to a 3-bedroom layout. A newer roof, furnace and 2 car-garage are practical perks but they fade into the background when you see the view from nearly every room. Sturdy and flexible, this home will be a project requiring TLC and elbow grease, there is no doubt about that. But, when you take in the views, the potential, and the feeling of this space, you'll know the effort is more than worth it. Guaranteed.
