If you are looking for the perfect get-away, Orchard Cottage on 4 acres in a field with apple trees, is the place for you to enjoy summers. With an eye for simplicity the builder coupled that with his skill, to build a charming seasonal cottage with a kitchen, dining area and living room with cathedral ceiling all opening onto a deck. There is one bedroom and a full bath. Minutes by bike to tennis courts, beach, dock and beautiful conservation trails for hiking, this is a wonderful location to enjoy all the Hancock Point peninsula has to offer. Half way between both Acadia National Parks, MDI and Schoodic locations, there are loads of day trips to discover the best this area has available. Tax amount to be determined by the town office.
