Indian Point, an idyllic 14.5±-acre park-like setting with 1,510± of west-facing shorefront on Western Bay, offers an unusually private setting. Peaceful and secluded, the property is framed by naturally forested areas of lush ferns, deciduous and coniferous trees, bayberry, and blueberry shrubs. Natural woodland paths meander throughout the property and along the shore.
Included are a rustic traditional summer camp with fireplace, a two-bedroom bunkhouse, and a unique ocean's-edge beach house with a large deck, all advantageously sited to enjoy spectacular waterfront views and activities. The shorefront features sandy beaches, schist and granite outcroppings, as well as the peninsula known as Indian Point on area maps.
This remarkable property offers a dynamic setting for a private family retreat, abutting a large conservation area and protected by a thoughtfully crafted conservation easement. Acadia National Park and the villages of Mount Desert Island are just a short drive away.
