Property Description:

This spectacular saltwater farm is located along the shores of Flanders Bay and a freshwater trout stream, and provides a pastoral setting for a private estate or family compound. The property consists of 21 +/- acres of rolling, open fields with stands of king pines and heirloom fruit trees, a farm pond and more than 3,000 feet of shorefront on the bay and stream. It includes a paneled antique 'Great Room' with antique fireplace and vaulted ceiling remaining from the former residence, a stately barn with four horse stalls, several garages, large boathouse with ramp perched on the water's edge, and a quaint artist's studio with a woodstove, running water and walls of windows framing the spectacular ocean view. The site faces south toward Flanders and Frenchman bays, with the mountains of Mount Desert in the distance. Underground power is in place to many areas of the acreage. Flanders Farm could be a family compound, private estate, or multi-residential setting, providing many options in an unusually large and beautiful setting, convenient to Ellsworth and the Schoodic and Mount Desert areas of Acadia National Park. The property can also be purchased with an additional 25 +/- acres which included a renovated, year-round farmhouse and 1,290 +/- feet of shore frontage.
