Conceptualized by a renowned shipwright, this post and beam home was crafted from timbers that were fallen and milled from the property. The beams have chamfered edges and are one example of the care that was taken in every detail of the house. Set on 1.52± acres with 150 ft± of waterfront, with protected views of west Penobscot Bay and the protected lands of Turtle Head, this 3-bedroom, 3.5 bath home has space and elegance comfort. The open floor plan includes a chef's kitchen, large hearth and chimney build from local island stones and offers multiple sitting areas all with water views. Radiant heat throughout the house warms the Brazilian slate floors on the first floor and wood floors of the second floor. The large deck is perfect for entertaining and offers opportunity to watch both the sunrise and sunset. The grounds have been cared for and there is a walking path that leads you down to a pebble and stone beach. The garden levels offer the opportunity for a guest suite or rental possibility with a bedroom, living area, kitchen, full bath and its own walkout entrance. The house has a strong rental history both year-round and seasonal. Plenty of privacy is offered by the up-island location and the thoughtfully crafted protective easements for view and vegetation. The northern side of the property abuts 24 acres of conservation land. The private dirt roads that lead you to the property are well maintained. Stay connected with fiberoptic broadband internet with 1 gibibyte connection speeds. Islesboro is a 20-minute ride from the mainland town of Lincolnville, accessed by a public car ferry, water taxi or private boat or small airplane.
