Ideal Maine artist's retreat, next to Frenchman Bay Conservancy and near Acadia

This charming 1790’s 2-bedroom/1-bath farmhouse Cape possessing many original, rustic features and a glorious Southern exposure makes an ideal retreat for artists, hikers, or anyone seeking natural beauty with peace and quiet. Smell the pines or watch the beautiful fall colors while enjoying a cup of coffee or a glass of wine surrounded by flowers in the stonewalled courtyard. Hike on the trails within the 300-acre Frenchman’s Bay Conservancy Long Ledges Preserve adjacent to the home; or play golf on the Blink Bonnie golf course in Sorrento only 3-miles away. Kayak at the nearby Tunk Lake recreational area, or on the sea at Tidal Falls. Just minutes away you can buy lobster at Tracy’s or the off-the-boat choice of Winter Harbor Lobster Coop. This fully equipped home (including high speed internet and wood stove) sits on a country road with thirty-five acres of land containing mature gardens, forest, three fields, and 1400 feet of pristine Flanders stream frontage. You will share the land with Maine wildlife including deer, wild turkeys, and hummingbirds. The newly renovated bath contains a walk-in shower. The magnificent Schoodic Peninsula section of Acadia National Park with its numerous biking and hiking trails is 15 minutes away by car; while the shops and art galleries of Bar Harbor and Blue Hill are 45 minutes or less away. Come experience the idyllic Maine life by spending a week or more at this historic home.
