About This Home
As of September 2019Charming, inviting home quite close to all the treasures of Acadia National Park & Bar Harbor yet tucked away in a quiet area. An open, flowing floor plan with hardwood floors and light-filled rooms creates a welcoming ambiance. The Master Bedroom could be a three-room suite by combining the adjoining sitting alcove/den and small bedroom into one large private wing upstairs. The covered porch off the kitchen overlooks the nicely groomed wooded back yard and offers a cozy spot for summer dining or a peaceful reading nook. The best of all worlds with a large, well-tended & always organic, veggie garden area in the wide sunny side yard by the entryway + the joy of your own raspberries and hybrid blueberries. Outdoor enthusiasts' paradise to be just minutes to every level of hiking trail, lush gardens and a wildlife sanctuary. Surrounded by well-loved Long Pond, Echo Lake, Eagle Lake & many spectacular sand beaches.
