Exquisitely Modern Maine Cottage

* Fully equipped kitchen with Wolf stove and under-counter Sub-Zero fridge
* Two gas fireplaces, one indoors, one on a covered deck

Located on the unspoiled Blue Hill Peninsula, close to Deer Isle, Stonington, and Castine, and an hour's drive to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. Designed by an internationally recognized architect, with interiors by Katch ID, this jewel of a cottage has in-floor heating, a fully equipped modern kitchen, two full baths, one with a steam shower, a native-species garden, a large book collection, and beauty, warmth, and privacy. Three mahogany decks, one for lounging by the garden, one for privacy off the bedroom, and one to appreciate the sunset view west toward the Camden Hills or to sit by the outdoor gas fireplace that's operated with a simple switch, make this 2,000 square foot home seem larger than it looks.
Guests have access to the entire cottage without restriction, as well as the surrounding 12 acres of woods and blueberry fields.
Caterpillar Hill was named by Downeast Magazine as one of the 10 best views in Maine. Nearby are hiking trails, antiques and artists' studios, lake and ocean beaches, charming fishing towns, fresh lobster, boat rides, day-trips to Acadia, Bar Harbor, and Isle au Haut, cultural events in Blue Hill and Stonington, farmers' markets, galleries, and much more.
Car recommended. One-hour drive from the Bangor International Airport.
Great for relaxing, reading, getting away from it all.

About the host
Hosted by Ann
Living and running a business in New York City, I could not survive without regular trips to Maine for peace and sanity! My three daughters, now in their 30s, have been going to Maine every year since they were babies and are thrilled to share the beauty of our property with visitors. We hope you'll come to love what we cherish about the Blue Hill peninsula and return again and again.
Why they chose this property
After many years vacationing at nearby Oakland House, we knew we wanted something of our own. And we knew we wanted the view from Caterpillar Hill. That fall, we saw an ad in Downeast advertising 12-acre lots for sale. That was all we needed, and we built the main house on Robert Knight's architectural plans the next year. A few years later, we built the cottage with the same architect and builder. Bob has retired, but you can read his thoughts about the house here: https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/edgy-guest-house-pj-vj~22786
What makes this property unique
With twelve acres of woods and blueberry fields surrounding the cottage, you'll have total privacy during your stay while you relax and connect with nature in luxurious comfort. If you're in need of a break from the hustle and bustle of your busy lives, this house, and the land around it, will provide exactly the tonic you need.
