Local real estate firm Newcastle Realty was pleased to present a $5,000 donation to Skidompha Library, after handling the sale of their 170 Main Street, Damariscotta property, known as the Stephen Coffin Building.

Newcastle Realty is part of the Cheney Financial Group which has provided financial and volunteer support to Lincoln County non-profits for many years. “We are always pleased to assist our community non-profits with their real estate needs,” explained company owner and President Dennis Hilton. “That gives us the opportunity to pay something extra back to them in return.”

Skidompha board member Karen Filler adds, “When the decision was made to sell this part of our real estate holdings, we wanted to work with a locally owned realty firm that had experience with commercial properties. We also enjoyed a long association with the Cheney Financial Group as supporters of our mission. Our Newcastle Realty agents were Jane Gravel and Debby Schling, and throughout the process their expertise and professionalism were evident and much appreciated. We were very pleased with the outcome.”
