Discover an exceptional coastal compound on the peaceful north end of Islesboro, where expansive acreage, shoreline access, and privacy come together in a truly uncommon offering. Spanning 13 acres with approximately 514 feet of open waterfront, the property provides direct, easy access to the beach without stairs. Abutting conservation land and reached by a long private drive, the setting feels secluded and removed from the everyday. At the heart of the compound is a beautifully threebedroom crafted log-style residence completed in 2025. The approximately 2,200-square-foot home combines rustic warmth with a bright, contemporary layout. Adding another dimension to the property is the original 1968 residence, a comfortable fourbedroom, two-bath home designed for year-round use. All of the living space is conveniently located on a single floor, and the home retains plenty of character. There is a separate two-car garage provides ample room for vehicles, equipment, and storage, as well as a boat house. Outdoor living is an integral part of the compound. A covered porch and waterside fire pit provide inviting places to gather, unwind, and enjoy the shoreline. Both residences have fenced yards with gated paths leading directly to the beach. For those interested in gardening or a more selfsufficient lifestyle, the property also includes a newly installed greenhouse and 10 young fruit trees. With two distinct homes, substantial acreage, protected surroundings, and rare open waterfront, this Islesboro compound offers remarkable versatility for extended family, private retreats, and generations of shared summers.

TWO HOMES-ONE OCEANFRONT PROPERTY: Set along the shores of beautiful Searsport Harbor, this timeless seasonal cottage offers the kind of coastal experience that feels increasingly difficult to find. For generations, it has quietly stood watch over family gatherings, beach picnics, sunrise coffees, and long summer evenings spent listening to the tide roll in. Rooted in simplicity and connection, it is a place where memories have been made for decades and where the pace of life naturally slows. Inside, the home features 5 bedrooms and 2 baths, with warm old-growth wood interiors that immediately transport you to another era. The spaces feel authentic and unpretentious, shaped more by laughter, storytelling, and salt air than by trends. Every room carries a sense of history and comfort, inviting time together after long days spent outdoors. The ever-changing beachfront offers a rare and treasured stretch of shoreline, perfect for swimming, launching kayaks, searching for shells, or simply sitting quietly by the water's edge as boats pass through the harbor. More than just a cottage, this is a true generational retreat; a place to reconnect with family, with nature, and with the enduring rhythm of the Maine coast. Included with this remarkable property is a newer 3-bedroom, 3-bath contemporary home offering open, airy living spaces filled with natural light and a sense of volume throughout. Two of the three bedrooms feature ensuite baths, adding comfort and flexibility for guests or multi-generational living. Designed with adaptability in mind, the layout easily suits a variety of lifestyles. The spacious lower level can serve as an in-law suite, exercise or artist studio, media room, or additional living space. A separate bonus room provides the perfect setting for a workshop or hobby area. Energy-conscious features include solar panels for low monthly electric costs and a 2-car attached garage with EV charging station. Modern, versatile, and filled with possibility.
