Set on more than seven private, westerly-facing acres, this classic log home captures some of the most spectacular sunsets on Mount Desert Island. Ideally located in the heart of the island, you'll enjoy easy access to Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, Southwest Harbor, and all that MDI has to offer.
Offering approximately 2,400 square feet of living space, the home features three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and endless potential to make it your own. Thoughtful system updates--including a newer furnace, water heater, Rinnai heater, and several replacement windows--provide peace of mind, while the interior is ready for your personal design vision.
The dramatic great room is the heart of the home, showcasing soaring ceilings, warm wood floors, and an impressive floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace that creates the perfect gathering space. A full basement offers exceptional potential for additional finished living space, recreation, or a workshop.
Outside, the detached three-car garage provides ample room for vehicles, recreational equipment, hobbies, and storage. The grounds offer an exceptional sense of privacy, framed by sweeping western views and unforgettable sunsets that make every evening feel special.
Whether you're seeking a year-round residence or investment opportunity, this property combines location, acreage, privacy, and incredible potential in one remarkable offering.
