Description
Tucked into more than 2 acres of mature forest and overlooking a quiet pond alive with wildlife, this classic cedar-shingled Cape offers a peaceful retreat where nature takes center stage. The property feels worlds away from the rush, yet provides about 1,500 square feet of comfortable living space with three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a first-floor bedroom with its own bath. Hardwood floors run throughout, and a distinctive fireplace anchors the living room with the warmth and character of an earlier time. A dining room, study, and family room offer flexible space for work or leisure. Outside, the landscape is defined by forest, water, and wildlife. The home faces west with views of nearby Eastern Harbor through the trees, and a separate outbuilding offers useful storage or space for tools and gear. The pond and surrounding woods attract deer, waterfowl, and songbirds, creating a setting rich with natural beauty and quiet privacy. Here, the best of Maine's bold coast is close at hand. Beals Island and the Great Wass Island Preserve offer scenic trails, rugged shoreline, and salt-spray vistas just minutes away. Launch a kayak, cast a line, or spend the day exploring the working harbors that define this region's character. Despite its wild, secluded feel, the property is closer than many Down East locations to Ellsworth and Bar Harbor, where Acadia National Park, shopping, dining, and cultural attractions await. Whether you dream of a year-round home, seasonal retreat, or a place to live close to the land, this peaceful property offers a rare chance to embrace the wilder side of coastal Maine.
