About this home

Located on the coveted ''Quiet Side'' of Mt. Desert Island, this beautifully restored 1897 home has been revitalized with care. Every detail preserves the charm of its era while seamlessly incorporating modern conveniences. The oversized wraparound farmer's porch has been rebuilt from the ground up, the original clawfoot tub has been refreshed, and a new clawfoot shower added on the first floor. The refinished floors and a stunning new kitchen complete the perfect blend of historic character and contemporary comfort. With three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a spacious backyard featuring a large new storage shed, this furnished home is turnkey and ready for rental this season. Its proximity to the breathtaking Seawall in Acadia National Park and the iconic Bass Harbor Lighthouse makes it an unbeatable opportunity!
