About This Home

As of August 2025

Move-in Ready Katahdin Cedar Log Home on the Union River
Just bring your clothes—everything else is here! This beautifully updated Katahdin Cedar Log Home comes fully and tastefully furnished, ready for you to start enjoying life on Tranquility Way.
Set on 3.34 stunning acres and 250 feet on the river, the property offers an enchanting natural setting with mature trees, flowering shrubs, and vibrant landscaping, all teeming with Maine wildlife—deer, birds, loons, seals, eagles and more. Enjoy magical views of the Union River from the river bank Gazebo, launch your kayaks to paddle the river and Bay, or relax in the hot tub, where you can unwind to the sound of birdsong and rustling leaves.
Inside, the home is warm and inviting, with thoughtful updates throughout. The first floor offers a spacious bedroom and full bath, a laundry room, and a cozy open living area. Upstairs features another large bedroom, a half bath, and a versatile loft perfect for an office, studio, or additional sleeping space. The lower level provides a complete second living area with ample storage and flexible space for guests, hobbies, or extended stays. There is ample room in the oversized garage for a workshop or storing sea kayaks, recreation equipment and most anything you may want to have.
Located just minutes from downtown Ellsworth—with shopping, dining, hospitals, and a YMCA—and only 20 minutes from Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. Bangor International Airport is under an hour away.
This rare and affordable year-round riverfront retreat truly lives up to its address—Tranquility Way. Don't miss the opportunity to make it yours!
