Delightful and unique year-round Timberpeg Post & Beam Contemporary in the highly desirable Island Retreat neighborhood, with shared rights to 1,600 feet of waterfront on beautiful Mackerel Cove, plus dock and clubhouse privileges. Situated on a magnificent granite ledge, the home was thoughtfully placed to embrace the land's natural beauty. The interior centers around a stunning central chimney and staircase, with all the rooms circling around it. The first floor offers a kitchen, living room, half bath, enclosed back porch, and two open porches. The second floor provides three bedrooms and a full bath. The third floor is crowned by the treehouse room - ideal as a studio, office, or reading retreat. Set on 5.1 private acres with hiking trails running directly onto the property and water access right out the door: kayaking, sailing, and exploring the cove. Swans Island is conveniently served by the Maine State Ferry from Bass Harbor, averaging 5 to 6 round trips daily, making year-round island living easy. Enjoy the quiet, beauty, and slower pace of Swans Island.
