This year-round Dark Harbor Cottage of nine rooms is a classic estate property first built in 1892 by Thomas B. Homer of Philadelphia. An exceptional offering, this waterfront parcel boasts a private 110-foot dock and a privately-owned mooring in Islesboro's most protected waters, and a commanding view of Ames Cove, Gilkey Harbor, Seven Hundred Acre Island, and spectacular sunsets over the Camden Hills. The property's newly and extensively landscaped two and a half acres contain a sweeping lawn, dry stone wall, flower beds, kitchen garden, flowered and moss-covered ledges, and both new and mature trees and bushes. Renovated in 1990-91 and again in 2006-07, the cottage has a traditional, partly open / partly awninged great porch with water views, a large kitchen with dining area, and a master suite with whirlpool bath and sitting room. Five bedrooms and four and a half bathrooms provide maximum flexibility for family, guests and/or staff. Location: Pendleton Point Road and Ames Cove, Dark Harbor, Islesboro, Maine.
