About this property
Beautiful Seaside Home with Sweeping Views - Weekly Discounts Available!
Heron Pool is a lovely country home privately situated on Somesville Harbor. We just completed a major renovation in 2020 to fully winterize the house, add a solar system, install all new windows, doors and insulation with a new efficient heat pump to heat and cool the house.
Heron Pool is at the end of a long driveway with sweeping views of the harbor and mountains. The property shares a dock with the neighbors. Take in bald eagles, ospreys, loons, seals, deer, and more from the deck. Inside it is tastefully furnished with antiques, overstuffed couches, and plenty of space for your family. The main house has 4 bedrooms, with 2 queen size beds and 4 single beds. There is also a private cottage steps away from the house with a queen size bed and full bathroom. Have lunch in the garden at a teak table set over looking the water, swim off the dock at high tide, kayak the harbor or just snooze in a lawn chair. Bikes and kayaks can be rented locally, and Somes Pond is minutes away and much warmer to swim in than the ocean.
Heron Pool sleeps 10 comfortably and is truly a family home. It is ideal for kids with a wooden swing set, fields and shoreline to explore, all well set back from the road.
If you ever leave the property you can enjoy all that Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, SW Harbor and NE Harbor have to offer. The owner will send you a long list of suggestions for hiking, biking, kayaking or going to have a nice meal or ice cream. You may not be a Rockefeller but you sure can live like one. Make Heron Pool a part of your summer this year and for years to come.
