Live-in Caretaker(s) - Near Portland, ME

Stony Manor is a magnificent, 1920’s stone mansion, built as single-family estate. The original family fell into hard times and abandoned the property in the early 1970’s.  A very talented developer bought the estate and converted it into six condos.

Stony Manor Condominium Association, made up of six owners (three of whom are full-time year-round residents, three of whom use the property as a second home) is seeking a live-in caretaker.

The caretaker’s apartment is a one-bedroom, one-bath, full kitchen, six room unit that has access to the entire estate which includes such amenities as an indoor year-round heated swimming pool, sauna, fitness room, free laundry (just 30 steps from the caretaker apartment), billiard room, a caretaker garage for a vehicle and equipment storage,  private patio for summer entertaining with BBQ, Casco Bay (Atlantic Ocean) water access for a kayak, or other boat. The apartment includes free heat and hot water and has a market rental value of $1500 per month.

The position is very flexible and the amount of work determines the amount of subsidy toward rent. We can envision a really good, take-charge person with many skills; mechanical, landscaping, vendor management etc. receiving a fully subsidized rent.

A single person or a couple (no children, pets or smoking) is fine. Having outside income is probably needed, as there is no stipend.  The apartment is unfurnished but we could provide it furnished for the right candidate. The apartment will be completely painted to the new caretakers specifications.

Please send a resume, letter of talents and skills.
