In the heart of Mount Desert on a private dead-end road, this custom-built 8-room residence offers a peaceful setting just moments away from Acadia National Park and the charming towns of Southwest Harbor and Bar Harbor, and nearby villages of Somesville and Northeast Harbor.
This lovely home features a thoughtfully designed
layout, including a spacious combination dining
room and great room with soaring cathedral ceiling, a brick hearth with a wood stove, and abundant windows (sliding glass doors) which perfectly capture the surrounding natural beauty. A large deck provides a perfect setting for outdoor dining and enjoying the park-like ambiance. The open-concept kitchen, complete with a cheerful breakfast nook, custom countertops, an island, builtin desk, and a pantry, is ideal for both entertaining and relaxed family meals. The convenience of a mudroom entrance with builtin storage seamlessly connects the oversized two car garage, which also offers stairs leading to an unfinished second floor, presenting potential for customization. The spacious primary bedroom, with its generous wall of closet space, door to the deck, and woodland views and water peeks, offers a true sense of serenity. The same wing of the house also includes a full bath with roll-in shower, a dedicated office, half bath, hall cloak closet, and a laundry room for added convenience. The second level features two good size bedrooms separated by a tiled bathroom.
The dry basement deserves mention of a workbench and good storage space. Whether you are seeking a year-round residence or a seasonal getaway, 68 Parker Farm Road provides
a comfortable and private lifestyle with easy access to hiking trails, boating opportunities, and the vibrant coastal charm that Mount Desert is known for.
