Property Description:

Historic ocean view farmhouse located on the quiet side of the Mount Desert Island. The property boasts a large spring-fed pond, a grass tennis court, woods and meadows, and protected ocean views of Goose Marsh Pond and Pretty Marsh. An enclosed sun porch affords breathtaking vistas of the meadows, pond and forest. The home needs updating but the setting is truly spectacular.

Private, but not far from Acadia National park and all island amenities. 

Additional Comments:

Located on the Northwestern shores of Mount Desert Island, Pretty Marsh is a quiet village boasting a scenic picnic area, picturesque coves and small islands that beckon photographers. Originally settled by Israel Bartlett, the village once was once home to a saw mill and regular visits from ships. Although off the beaten path, Pretty Marsh is a short drive to Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park and all Mount Desert Island amenities. Acadia carriage trails are also  nearby. Pretty Marsh is located about 25 minutes from the Hancock County-Bar Harbor Airport in Trenton and about 90 minutes from the international airport in Bangor.
