 Property Description:
A spectacular opportunity to own or develop 43.5+/- acres on the site of one of old Bar Harbor’s estates. Eventyr Woods is situated on the top of Hamilton’s Hill in Bar Harbor. Aptly named Eventyr, (Norwegian for fairy tale) this acreage has outstanding views over Kebo, Cadillac and Dorr Mountains, Frenchman’s Bay and Kebo Golf Club. The subdivision has been approved by the town for 44 lots. (Exceptions to this offer are Lots 31, 35, 36, 37, as referenced in the subdivision plan).
Hamilton’s Hill was the location of the estate of William Pierson Hamilton, great-grandson of Alexander Hamilton. The estate or cottage was known as “Thirlstane” and was destroyed in the disastrous fire that swept through the area in 1947. The ruins of what remain of the cottage are still visible on top of the Hill.
Additional Comments:
Bar Harbor is a popular destination for visitors to Acadia National Park. The town center with its diverse shops and activities, is approximately 11 miles from the head of the island via Route 3. This area is renowned for sailing, kayaking and other water pursuits. Mount Desert Island has much to offer the seasonal and year-round resident.
