Leeward is located along the Western Way, well known by yachters as an ocean passage leading to the entrance of Great Harbor, in the vibrant community of Southwest Harbor. Enjoy this front row seat to the endless island, mountain and boating scenery with lobstering and yacht racing often in the foreground. Soaring windows with a cathedral living room ceiling provide views in a light-filled sitting room featuring a large brick hearth fireplace and handcrafted cabinetry, reminiscent of fine yacht interiors. The open kitchen has black granite counters and stainless-steel appliances; a ships' ladder accesses a loft area overlooking the living room with ocean views. This contemporary year-round home has three bedrooms with an additional secluded guest suite over the oversized three-car garage. A large, protected deck provides additional outdoor seating overlooking the water and islands. Additionally, Leeward features a deepwater dock and mooring, providing the type of unfettered access for boating that few properties offer. Thoughtfully planned landscaping provides privacy to this gorgeous setting that frames magnificent ocean and island views. Meticulously designed and maintained inside and out, Leeward offers many of the desirable amenities that discerning buyers are looking for.
