Renovated 19th-Century Farmhouse w/ 270 Feet of Waterfront & Sunset Views

It doesn't get more classically Maine than this thoughtfully renovated 19th-century farmhouse with 270 feet of tidal shorefront on an inlet of Penobscot Bay. Built in the 1880s and lovingly remodeled in recent years, this home maintains its original charm in its beautiful wood plank floors, exposed ceiling beams, and inviting country kitchen, yet it has also been updated with such modern amenities as free WiFi and a flatscreen TV with cable service.

Here on the edge of the tidal Bagaduce River, you'll spend your days exploring the serene beauty of the Blue Hill Peninsula, taking easy day trips to Acadia National Park and Deer Isle, and coming home to a private deck, a stone firepit for evening s'mores and stories, and a gorgeous stretch of private, west-facing shoreline where you can take in unforgettable sunsets. A private gas grill is perfect for summertime cookouts.

What's nearby:
This three-bedroom farmhouse enjoys a wonderful location in the village of Penobscot on the Blue Hill Peninsula, off the beaten path yet an easy drive from the neighboring towns of Blue Hill (eight miles southeast) and Castine (10 miles southwest). You'll be able to walk to the local country store for any necessities you may require, and you'll have 270 feet of west-facing waterfront on the banks of the tidal Bagaduce River (an inlet of greater Penobscot Bay). The natural splendor of Maine is all around you, whether you choose to drive 20 miles south to Deer Isle and Stonington, the lobstering capital of Maine, or head 40 miles east to charming Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, glimpsing such iconic landmarks as the Ocean Path and the summit of Cadillac Mountain while you're there.

Beautiful Views From This Waterfront Home

The listing photos do not do this home justice. It is spacious, comfortable, and has great views from most windows. The deck is really well furnished and useable. Coffee on it at sunrise was spectacular. The second floor master bedroom suite is extra large and comfortable, plus it offers outstanding views as well. The yard is spacious and well landscaped. We loved the area and highly recommend this summer home.

Beautiful House and View

We had a wonderful time staying here in Maine. The home is beautiful and the views are amazing! But there are a few things to point out that could have saved us some trouble. We did not realize the owner stayed on the property. This was not in the listing and caught us by surprise when we can home one night to find a truck in the driveway and light on in what we learned to be the apartment above the garage. Although we now know the owner to be a very nice person, we were unaware that they would be staying in a separate apartment above the garage. We could not reach the owner and had to go through Vacasa. It took hours to figure out what was going on, and it was certainly an interesting night. The house also is listed as 3 bedrooms. It is 2 bedrooms and an open loft area outside the master bedroom. The listing says air conditioning, but if it is there, we certainly couldn't find it. Definitely not central air. Luckily it was cool at night. Location was great and highlights were dinner at Cook's, a day in BoothsBay and whale watching, and a day in Portland. We also enjoyed swimming off the dock in the very cold water. We really enjoyed our stay.
