186 Lopaus Point Rd, Bernard, ME 04612

Lopaus Point features 28± pristine acres along the ocean at the end of a point with spectacular views to the west towards Deer/Isle Stonington and Blue Hill. The gently sloping landscape feels like a private oasis, with trails through mossy forest and 2,500± feet of easily accessed shorefront on Mitchell Cove and Blue Hill Bay. An extensive sand and pebble beach wraps around the point, creating a truly magical waterfront experience with rare western sunset views towards the mountains of the Midcoast. This property offers multiple charmingly rustic and seasonal buildings, including a larger ''main'' cabin, plus two smaller cottages and a cabin on the point. Additionally, there is a boathouse and writer's cabin, and all the buildings are in grandfathered locations on the shore, ready for customization and rejuvenation. Located on the exclusive Mount Desert Island, the property is about a 15-minute drive to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor.

With 28+ acres of mature mixed-wood Maine forestland gently sloping to over 2500' beach frontage along the ocean at the end of a point on exclusive Mt. Desert Island, very few properties in the state can offer this level of privacy and inspiring views, south and west from all points on the property. The former summer retreat for Pulitzer Prize writer Walter Lippmann and family, just a short drive to highly acclaimed Acadia National Park's wonder, this family enclave has a main house, 4 separate cabins, and a boathouse, all in grandfathered locations on the shore. Choose between individually updating these buildings to maintain their wonderful Maine charm and coveted proximity to the water. Or think more grandly about working with Maine shoreland zoning regulations to transform this seasonal property into something year-round and more substantial (some seller subdivision restrictions will also apply). The views, the privacy, the breadth of shore frontage will support the kind of capital improvements you have in mind. 'Irreplaceable' in a word.
