Overview

Historic Private Island on Piscataqua

Frank's Fort Island presents a rare opportunity to own a private, wooded island in the Long Reach of the Piscataqua River, near Eliot Neck and minutes from the Eliot Boat Basin and Dead Duck Boat Ramp. The island is surrounded by salt marsh, wildlife, and river views, offering privacy and serenity within boating distance to Kittery, Portsmouth, and the Atlantic Ocean. Historically significant, the island was used to hide gunpowder stolen from Fort William and Mary in 1774, before it was used in the Battle of Bunker Hill. The 1-acre island holds potential for a seasonal retreat, artist's studio, eco-cabin, or minimalist getaway. A deeded right of way to the mainland shore offers access and enhances the property's value. Buyers can explore possibilities for a dock, mooring, or off-grid structure, requiring planning and stewardship. This location offers historical provenance, privacy, legal access, and a prime location along the Piscataqua River.
