Beds: 1 King, 1 Queen, 1 Single
Enjoy the expansive hilltop views across Frenchman’s Bay from not one, but two elevated decks in this beautifully furnished and comfortable annex attached to the Rockbilt Estate, just outside Bar Harbor’s village center. Park entrances, shops and restaurants are all just a short drive away. New for the 2024 season, this lovely home creates a truly luxurious experience for the discriminating traveler!
FIRST FLOOR: Private parking area with path leads to a covered, furnished front porch that opens to an attractive entry for coats, boots, and outdoor gear. Small Half Bath. Combined Kitchen, Dining, and Living Space with multiple amenities: counter seating for three, high end appliances, wine chiller, formal dining table to seat four to six, ample furnishings and decorative objets d’art, fireplace, enormous flat screen TV, sliding doors to a shared terrace, and two sets of French Doors (one of them screened), leading to a covered, elevated deck with outdoor fireplace, conversation areas, dining table, and spectacular views across Frenchman’s Bay. Oh, and did we mention the piano?
SECOND FLOOR: At the top of the stairs, and around the corner is the Primary Bedroom Suite. Just inside the entry to the suite is a separate, but small Bunk Room with a built-in upper bunk over a desk, suitable for a young child who might not want to sleep far from parents. This entry way then opens to a grand bedroom with King Bed, a gas fireplace, sitting area, and flat-screened TV. Around the corner, an en suite Full Bath with double sink, whirlpool tub, and walk-in shower looks and feels like a true spa. Two sliding doors across the front of the room also lead to the elevated deck, furnished with chaise lounges, and also open to sweeping views of the bay. Privacy screens can be closed to enjoy your outdoor space discreetly, which might come in handy should you decide to take advantage of the outdoor rain shower, also found on the deck (note – our photo does not yet picture the shoulder height stall that will be built around the shower). In the hall leading to the Primary Bedroom, a laundry closet is conveniently located. To the left of the stairs, a shared Full Bath with walk-in shower serves the Bedroom with Queen bed situated at the end of the hall. All bedrooms are equipped with curtains for both shade and privacy.
OUTDOOR SPACES: This guest house is attached to the owner’s primary residence, and as such, enjoys semi-private use of the expansive furnished terrace with outdoor fireplace and multiple seating areas, and enjoyment of the surrounding grounds. Note that a third residence, Rockbilt Loft, a one-bedroom apartment situated over the garage, would also likely be occupied during your stay.
EXTRAS: Adjacent to the living space, a lockable privacy door connects this home to the owner’s attached primary residence via the distinctive club-style billiards room and library. Should you prefer, you can join your hosts one night a week for a game at the pool table, a beverage of your choosing, or casual conversation!

Bar Harbor’s village and surrounding rural residential areas are a popular destination for visitors to Acadia National Park. The town center offers diverse shops, restaurants and activities. Acadia National Park’s Hulls Cove entrance, as well as other major entrances, are located just outside the village center. Not all properties listed as ‘Bar Harbor’ are actually in the village of Bar Harbor, since the town of Bar Harbor encompasses the northern half of Mt. Desert Island, most of which is quite rural in nature. However, homes within this area are usually between five and fifteen minutes’ drive to the village center.
