FIRST FLOOR: Enter through the Breezeway from the driveway to a large Kitchen featuring double oven, cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, cork floor, and large circular table that seats eight comfortably. From the Kitchen, a cozy den with TV leads to an expansive Living Room with showcase fireplace, plenty of comfortable seating, and TV. This space is combined with the formal Dining Room with table that seats 10-12 and includes a door leading to back to the Kitchen. Of note in this space is a lovely Craftsman Style stained glass clerestory decorative window dividing this space from the den. Beyond the Living Room is a large Primary Bedroom with King bed, fireplace, and TV. Across the hall is a large Full Bath with separate whirlpool tub, tiled shower, double vanity, bidet, and commode. At the end of the hall is a club style reading room. Also on the first floor are laundry facilities and a half bath.
SECOND FLOOR: Carpeted stairs lead to the second floor, accented by a large sitting area with TV that divides this level in two. To the north are three bedrooms: two with Queen Bed each, and one small bedroom with two Bunk Beds. Note that this 3rd bedroom does not have a separate egress, so there is no door to close it off. These three bedrooms share a large Full Bath with tiled walk in shower. At the south end of the house, there are two magnificent bedrooms, each with a King Bed. At the end of a hall, a roomy Full Bath includes a soaking tub and walk-in shower. All bedrooms feature a TV and ceiling fans.
BASEMENT: Carpeted stairs lead to a finished basement entertainment room (not pictured) with enormous TV and a fourth Full Bath with tiled shower.
OUTDOOR SPACES: Doors from the Kitchen and den lead to the deck and terraces outside overlooking the back meadow and woods. Don’t be surprised to see deer, turkeys, and other wildlife wandering through these quiet grounds!

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 mill pond. The year round population of about 800 residents enjoy close proximity to Acadia National Park, Echo Lake, Somes Pond, and Long Pond. With its central location, all of Mt. Desert Island’s treasures are just a short drive away.
