About this property

Exquisite Carriage House in Beautiful Coastal Maine

Our Carriage House is located on a beautiful stretch of Maine's mid-coast area. Conveniently located between the two towns of Belfast and Camden, the house is set in a very private area, at the end of a mile-long paved, private cul-de-sac drive. Nestled into a wooded ridge at the foot of Jackson Hill, the Carriage House is an ideal vacation home for a family or a couple looking for peaceful, upscale lodgings while exploring coastal Maine.

The house was built in 2004. The main living space is the eat-in kitchen, with cathedral ceilings, a granite and stainless look and modern appliances. As foodies, we focused on the kitchen, with all the expected appliances including a dual fuel range, but also a KitchenAid mixer, a blender, a salad spinner, a wine fridge and an espresso machine. The master bedroom has a queen bed and a twin in a cozy alcove separated by a curtain. An adjoining bathroom has two locking doors, while the second bedroom has two twins. These could be made into bunkbeds if preferred. Larger groups have a 6th guest sleep on a large couch downstairs.

There are three outside decks. A small shaded balcony off the kitchen offers a lovely place to have enjoy morning coffee while viewing the beautiful wooded surroundings, mountains, and distant ocean. The larger front patio has a table and 4 chairs and is good for enjoying the woodland scenery, relaxing or sunbathing. The back patio is the perfect place for outside grilling, sunning, or reading.

All the upstairs rooms have window screens and ceiling fans, and supplemental air conditioning is available, though the home stays pretty cool built into the hillside in our cool climate. We are members of our local community solar energy project, which provides the electricity.

The neighborhood is a quiet and natural setting. Many of our neighbors enjoy walking the mile-long road for exercise and fresh air. Come and check out our cottage in Mid-Coast Maine!

About the host

Hosted by Joe Anderson

Host profile image
We live on the coast of Maine and have 3 grown children. I am a local pediatrician and enjoy sailing and playing soccer during my time off.

Why they chose this property

We bought the house and the land that it was built on in 2004. We lived here for 2 and a half years while we planned and built the house that we currently live in, sharing the driveway 700 feet up the hill. We think that the Carriage House is a perfect spot to stay for anyone who is interested in seeing mid-coast Maine. We love the fact that the house is completely private: nestled in the side of a hill, surrounded by beautiful woods, and the Camden Hills and Penobscot Bay in the distance. When we travel, we appreciate clean, well appointed facilities. We have done our best to make the accommodations in the Carriage House those that we would hope to find when traveling.

What makes this property unique

Woodland tranquility is the best feature of the Carriage House- something that seems to be harder and harder to find. Sitting on one of the three decks enjoying a coffee, you might see turkeys wander by, or hear the cry of a loon from a nearby lake. We have even seen a moose in the yard! At the same time, it is within range of numerous fun activities like beach swimming and boating, windjammer cruises, good restaurants, Acadia National Park and many others. Come and see for yourself!
