Property Description
A haven of total serenity with home and separate apartment on over 5 acres of Maine coast with 1,265 feet of pebble beach on the ocean. This gorgeous contemporary energy-efficient 3,100-square-foot home has spectacular views and the salt breezes of clean, clear sea air for the perfect escape. Down a long driveway to the sea, this home is the perfect place to get away, relax, unwind and forget the outside world. The home itself has an open floorplan that maximizes the incredible views. The beautiful stone fireplace accents the living room's . majestic views of the bay. And the two-room wine cellar/private bistro in the basement is like stepping into Italy! The adorable apartment above the detached garage is perfect for guests who value their privacy, or it would make a great private office. The 5.4 acres of grounds are lovely with flowering beds and foot bridges across little streams; and walking the 1,265 feet along the shore brings peace to the soul. Sited at the very head of Frenchman Bay which flows between Bar Harbor and the Schoodic Peninsula, this property overlooks some of the most magnificent vistas in Maine. Enjoy wine from your private wine cellar on the extensive deck while looking across the bay to Cadillac Mtn. Panoramic views sweep from the headlands of Sorrento on the West all the way across the bay to the northern headlands of Schoodic on the East with islands dotting the waters directly down the bay. Come kayak among islands and islets with such picturesque names as Halftide Ledge, Hog Island, Ash Island, Junk of Pork, Long Ledge, Thrumcap and Calf Island (so named for the seals' calves there each year). Beyond lies larger Stave Island with its conserved area. Even with such complete privacy, all amenities are quite close by. This remarkable home is being sold fully furnished...ready to move right in and enjoy Life the Way it Should be!
