Nestled on rolling meadows which slope to a quiet ocean cove, Whistle Pig Farm is your perfect summer or year-round retreat in beautiful Pretty Marsh on sought-after Mount Desert Island. With 12.28± acres of beautiful pasture and 475± feet of shorefront on Pretty Marsh Harbor, this spectacular property boasts a lovely year-round residence, a large, attached barn with stalls and tack areas, paddocks, several shelters, a heated multi-vehicle garage, and beautifully cultivated perennial gardens. Although privately sited, Whistle Pig Farm is convenient to Acadia National Park, a public boat launch and all island amenities. Originally built in 1818, the understated four-bedroom country residence enjoys wonderful ocean, meadow or garden views from every window. With many charming traditional elements, such as wide plank pine floors, roughhewn timber rafters and brick hearth fireplaces, the residence has been fully updated and beautifully maintained. Modern amenities include a large country kitchen with fireplace, formal dining room, and bright all-season sunroom, all providing a front row seat to the beauty and nature of Pretty Marsh Harbor. The sunporch has sweeping views of the meadows and ocean and it's the perfect spot to entertain or curl up with a book while enjoying the incredible vista. Launch your kayak or small boat from your shorefront. A public boat launch for larger vessels is located just down the road at Bartlett's Landing. Other property amenities include high-speed internet and a full house generator, providing all-season peace of mind. Actively used as a saltwater equestrian farm, the property is located in the quiet village of Pretty Marsh on Mount Desert Island. Whistle Pig Farm is one of a kind and offers an idyllic respite for those just savoring the 'way life should be'.
