About this property

Modern Lake House on a secluded cove on Long Pond, Mount Desert Island!

  • Enjoy Long Pond and Acadia National Park at Long Pond Escape, a private home built in 2016, on six acres of woods located on a secluded cove on the northwest corner of Long Pond.

    The first floor features bright, open living space with a fully equipped kitchen, island with 4 stools, a large dining table (seats 8), and a half bath and living room area with a wood stove. Doors open to a spacious deck facing the lake, and to a side screened porch. Master bedroom with queen bed and a 32" TV, and a master bath with glassed shower. The master bedroom has views of Long Pond.

    Upstairs are three bedrooms: queen (also with a 32" TV), double, and one with a twin bed and a bunk bed (2 twins), and a full bath. All three upstairs bedrooms have views of Long Pond.

    There is a finished basement with a family room with a 55" TV with blu-ray disk player and Roku player, a game room with a mini pool table, a full bath with shower. The laundry room is also on this floor. Double French doors open to a stone patio with a fire pit.

    Head down to the private dock and enjoy a swim or paddle and discover the quiet side of Long Pond. A canoe, five kayaks, three paddle boards, a row boat and a pedal boat are all available for your enjoyment. If you don't feel like swimming or boating, the dock is also great for sunbathing, reading, fishing, or just enjoying the view of the lake with Cadillac, Sargent, Beech, Mansell and Bernard Mountains in the background. You can also enjoy the loons and ducks that swim by every day, and on occasion you'll see great blue herons and bald eagles. On clear nights, the dock is a great place for stargazing -- see the Milky Way in all its glory.

    Note: the dock and swim float are in the water between May and early October, but will be taken in for the year in mid-October.
