Cliffhanger prominently overlooks Seal Harbor, with sweeping views of the mountains, harbor and outer islands. Built entirely of pink granite with a slate roof, this unique residence has many engaging design features and has been stylishly renovated to accommodate a large family, visiting guests, or a serve as a quiet retreat.
The great room has a fireplace at each end of the huge room with a vaulted, beamed ceiling; a covered sitting area and open terrace overlooking the harbor are conveniently accessed from the living room. A formal dining room, butler's pantry, and family room are off the bright, open kitchen, allowing for easy going family time. There are seven bedrooms, one of which is set up as a large bunk room in a separate wing of the house over the two-car garage.
The setting is very private and attractively landscaped with perennial flowering plants and shrubs amongst granite pathways meandering through the wooded property. An outdoor hot tub is also set overlooking the harbor, screened by forested areas.
Cliffhanger is an unusual offering in a coveted area of Seal Harbor, has been meticulously maintained and preserved, and must be seen to be appreciated.
