About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Spacious, bright, oceanfront house on the Blue Hill Peninsula.
Stay comfortably on the Blue Hill Peninsula at this bright, three-bedroom house. Situated on a private road with waterfront along Penobscot Bay, this property offers a quiet place to relax while also being close to the attractions of the mid- and Downeast coast.
The property includes a main house as well as a guest house attached by a covered breezeway. Both houses are connected to a long deck with spectacular water views and a screened porch.
The main house features an open kitchen, dining area, and living room with propane-fired enamel heat stove. It sleeps four in two bedrooms: one bedroom with a king bed and a second bedroom with a queen bed. The queen bedroom includes an en suite half bathroom and both bedrooms can access the full bathroom with shower, clawfoot tub, double sink, and bidet.
The guest house is a few steps away from the main house; it is connected by a covered breezeway and features one bedroom and one children's nook. The bedroom has a queen bed and spectacular view of the water and gardens. The children's nook is open to the hallway and has a low ceiling height that gives it a playhouse-like feel that is perfect for children. It has a wooden play kitchen, blocks, children's books, and other wooden toys. It is equipped with two twin-sized floor beds.
The first floor of the guest house has two rooms. One is a game/exercise space with full-sized ping pong table, treadmill, and other exercise equipment; it has two sliding-glass doors, one opening to the front yard and one to the backyard. The second first-floor room has a television, small refrigerator, lovely views of the water, sliding-glass door to the backyard, a table for games and puzzles, and sofa that converts to a double bed.
The beach, yard, deck, and screened porch offer a variety of places to be outdoors. The open area in the main house provides cozy space to gather inside while the guest house is great for movie-watching, game-playing, and exercise.
This versatile house sleeps six in three conventional bedrooms, and an additional four in a double sofa bed and two movable twin floor beds; the floor beds may be set up in the children's nook or moved to another space, such as parents’ bedroom, according to guests’ needs. The house is perfect for three couples, families with children, two families traveling together, and a number of other guest configurations.
Whether you are relaxing or working, this delightful home offers a quiet and pleasant retreat. Stay in place and rest, enjoy the beach, or admire the flock of sheep in the adjacent field. Or enjoy the small towns, exceptional hiking, and stunning coastlines of the Blue Hill Peninsula and surrounding area.
From this central location you can easily explore Mount Desert Island and Acadia National Park (50 minutes), Castine (10 minutes), Blue Hill (15 minutes), Belfast (30 minutes), Deer Isle (45 minutes), Camden (60 minutes), Bucksport (10 minutes), and surrounding towns. Bangor International Airport and Bar Harbor Airport are both under an hour away.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. The bathroom offers hair dryers and bidets. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.
