MOSS LEDGE | Deer Isle, Maine
With 375'± of shorefront on Penobscot Bay, 3.75± private acres, and sweeping views to the Camden Hills, Moss Ledge is a thoughtfully designed coastal retreat. The property includes a well-built three-level cottage by Patrick Trowbridge (2002) and a separate guest barn, both clad in natural cedar shingles with standing seam metal roofs. Western exposure and a wildflower-filled meadow add to the peaceful, expansive feel of the setting.
A gravel drive off Goose Cove Road leads through quiet woods and opens to a sunlit meadow edged by spruce, with glimpses of the bay beyond. Granite-lined walking paths wind through the landscape—ideal for quiet strolls or tending the perennial beds.
Inside the cottage, exposed beams, a central stone fireplace, and tall windows invite in natural light and long water views. The open living area flows into a well-proportioned kitchen with soapstone countertops and custom floor-to-ceiling cabinetry. A built-in window seat near the dining nook offers a quiet place to pause and enjoy the view.
Also on the main floor is a full bath with a soaking tub and classic tilework. Upstairs, the primary suite spans the top level, with a meditation room, double-sink vanity, built-ins, and a private balcony—perfect for morning coffee or sunset skies.
Outdoor living spaces include a covered porch and water-facing deck. The guest barn offers additional space with a half bath below and sleeping quarters above, echoing the home's quality construction and clean lines.
Moss Ledge has been a well-loved weekly rental for years and offers the flexibility to continue sharing it or enjoy it as your private retreat. A quiet, quality-built oceanfront property with room to breathe and views that will stay with you.
