399 Hermits Point Rd Islesboro ME 04848 MLS #2954467331

Encompassing 8.8+/- acres on Keller Point, this historic estate enjoys spectacular views to the south down the bay, west to the Camden Hills, and east over Seal Harbor and Islesboro. The iconic 1918 Renaissance Revival stucco ‘cottage’ is a stately residence characterized by attractive arched doorways and windows, porches and loggia. Spacious living and dining areas, with eight en-suite bedrooms, accommodate large groups, while more intimate areas–indoors and outside–invite quiet conversation or time with a good book. The property’s grounds are those of a classic Maine summer estate, artfully landscaped with lawns, flowering shrubs and specimen trees. The property also includes a lovely saltwater swimming pool, a stone guest house in need of renovation, a paddle tennis court, and additional estate-style outbuildings. Located at the end of a private peninsula, the property has 3, 570+/- feet of shorefront with granite ledge, sand and pebble beaches, and a substantial deep-water dock.
