About This Home

Step into this charming 4-bedroom, 1-bath home offering the perfect blend of historic character and modern updates. Built in 1910, this classic Bar Harbor residence has been thoughtfully improved since 2008 with updates including a renovated kitchen and bath, new sheetrock, insulation, and windows.
Enjoy hardwood floors and built-ins that add warmth and functionality to the living room. The kitchen is spacious with an adjacent dining room. The fenced-in backyard provides privacy and a blank canvas—ideal for gardens, a patio, or outdoor entertaining.
This property would serve well for an investor, employee housing, student housing, or a large family, offering both flexibility and convenience. Located on a dead-end road, you're just minutes from downtown Bar Harbor with it's shopping, restaurants and local services. Acadia National Park is of course the main attraction in the area with its hiking and views! Close proximity to MDI Hospital, Jackson Laboratory, College of the Atlantic and local schools makes this an exceptional location for work, education, and recreation alike.
