Finding the right home takes more than knowing what's on the market. It helps to work with someone who understands the communities, the coastline, and the character of the place you're hoping to call home.

At Realty of Maine's Winter Harbor office, real estate agent Peter Drinkwater brings decades of firsthand knowledge of the Schoodic Peninsula to helping buyers and sellers find their place in coastal Maine.

Deep Roots in the Schoodic Community

Before entering real estate, Peter owned the Winter Harbor 5 & 10 for more than 36 years. Running a local store gave him the opportunity to get to know generations of residents, seasonal visitors, and the communities that make this corner of Maine special.

Peter appreciates what makes the Schoodic Peninsula unique. Working fishing harbors, the dramatic coastline of Acadia National Park, and a vibrant summer community have long existed side by side, helping preserve the area's distinctive character.

That familiarity gives him a valuable perspective when helping clients navigate the local real estate market, whether they're searching for a year-round home, a seasonal retreat, or preparing to sell a property.

A Personal Approach to Real Estate

Peter sees a natural connection between his years in retail and his work in real estate:

“I enjoy working with the public every day. In my past retail business I helped the public find the right item needed for their project and in my real estate business I help my clients find the right house to buy.”

It's a straightforward philosophy built around listening, understanding what people need, and helping them make informed decisions.

For those hoping to find their own piece of Downeast Maine, Peter offers the perspective of someone who has lived, worked, and built lasting connections in the Schoodic community for decades.
