20 Grover Avenue, Mount Desert, ME 04660

With its foundation and walks of rare pink granite from the Island's first and short-lived quarry, the history of this cottage is built in. Today, Acadia National Park's Quarry trail opposite the front door leads to the iconic Ocean Drive Causeway, an easy 10-minute trail. Continue further to Thunder Hole or Gorham Mountain in 40 minutes without driving at all. Few homes have such proximity to Acadia. The cottage is on a quiet, dead-end road, yet Bar Harbor is a mere 5 miles away. Mature gardens offer season-long low-maintenance beauty. Inside, tasteful improvements blend old- style Maine charm with artful minimalism. New stained cedar shingles, offering years of new life to the exterior. Winter-Spring views of Cadillac, Dorr and Gorham Mountains Named for a former owner who loved to play the violin, Pearl's Place is a part of the island's history.
