Cedar shingle, a granite foundation and the ferry at the end of the road.
Stonecrop sits on a grassy rise above the back shore, its cedar shingles weathered silver by a century of sea air. It was built on a granite foundation by a Portland sea captain, which is why it has come through so many winters so well.
The ground floor is a single living room and kitchen around a cast-iron wood stove, with a run of windows looking straight out to the water. Upstairs, two bedrooms sit under the roof, the larger with a gable window over the bay.
The ferry landing is a five-minute walk, making it a year-round home for anyone who commutes into Portland.
