Property Description

This year-round Timberpeg post-and-beam home sits on a granite ledge in Island Retreat, on 5.1 private acres. It comes with shared rights to 1,600 feet of frontage on Mackerel Cove, plus dock and clubhouse privileges. The house was placed to fit the ledge rather than fight it. Inside, a central chimney and staircase anchor the layout, and the rooms wrap around them. First floor: kitchen, living room, half bath, an enclosed back porch, and two open porches Second floor: three bedrooms and a full bath Third floor: the treehouse room, up in the beams. Use it as a studio, office, or the best reading spot on the island. Trails lead from the land straight onto the property, and the cove is a short walk for kayaking, sailing, or poking along the shore. The Maine State Ferry runs from Bass Harbor several times a day, so living on the island year-round is practical. You get quiet, granite, salt air, and a slower pace.
