Property Description:
This six plus acre parcel with 570 +/- feet of accessible Long Pond shore frontage is located off Ripples Road. The sluiceway that empties into Ripples Pond is at the foot of this land. It is a rare offering on Great Pond, today referred to as Long Pond, Mt. Desert Island’s largest body of fresh water. Surveyed and soil tested, one can envision a modern day “camp” alongside the pure and private lake with abundant wildlife at its door to observe and to protect.
Additional Comments:
Somesville was the first village settled on Mount Desert Island in 1761 and is now a National Historic District. Walking or driving through the village is like stepping back in time, with sights of beautifully preserved examples of early New England architecture and a charming millpond. The year-round population of about 800 residents enjoy close proximity to Acadia National Park, Echo Lake, Long Pond, and a public boat landing on Somes Sound. A wonderful community, Somesville is an ideal traditional New England community.
