Secluded Home Offers Water Access, Stunning Water Views, Privacy and Tranquility

The Crow's Nest-71 Amscray Lane
Bar Harbor License number: VR2R26-082
Headline: Secluded Home Offers Water Access, Stunning Harbor and Island Views
Summary: 2 BR,2.5 BA, Sleeps 4 -
Description: Wonderful new custom built home with large deck overlooking a protected harbor and a private island. The Crow's Nest has two bedrooms with queen beds, two full bathrooms, a large living/dining/bedroom and an upstairs with a bedroom. The house has large front and side decks with stunning views. The house is built on a slope so when your sitting on the deck you feel like you are sitting in the trees overlooking beautiful protected land.

Extremely quiet surroundings, at end of a long drive. You'll have access to a dock to put in a kayak or canoe. The area is perfect for paddling around and exploring. There are two small islands to visit for a picnic or a swim, a colony of seals to watch (please try to respect their space and stay back 150 feet) and if your lucky Bald Eagles and Opreys nesting and hunting in the area. Wildlife abounds with eagles, osprey, terns, loons, cormorants and the occasional porpoise over the water and rabbits, deer and once in awhile porcupine or fox visit the property. This side of Mount Desert is often sunny when other parts are fog bound. The water is warmer here and more calm. Perfect for Kayaks and canoes.
About You: Susan lives at the top of the hill and two properties over. If you have any questions she will do her best to help.
Why This Property: This property is perfect for two couples or a family looking for a quiet getaway. Well behaved dogs are always welcome.
Unique Benefits: The Crow's Nest is quiet and peaceful, the views are incredible, the building is new and it's a kayakers paradise. A truly great place to explore Acadia and MDI.

Why they chose this property

The site is perfect for two couples or a family looking for a quiet get-away with water and island views. Well behaved dog welcome – no other critters allowed.

What makes this property unique

The Studio is quiet and peaceful, the views are incredible, the building is up-to-date; and is a kyacker / canoeor’s paradise. Seals abound (please respect their privacy and stay 150 feet away from their basking rocks). Eagles, Osprey, Terns, Loons, and Cormorants fish in the area and the occasional pod of porpoise swim by. The views include Blue Hill, Black Island and Oak Point. This side of Mount Desert is often sunny when other areas are fog bound, and the water is warmer. It’s a peaceful getaway 15-20 minutes from the hectic tourist frenzy of Bar Harbor in the summer time. Well behaved flea treated dog welcome.
