7 Columbia Avenue, Tremont, ME 04617

Built in 1877, with views of the picturesque Bass Harbor and mountains of Acadia, this year-round, three-bedroom, two full bath, modern farmhouse is tucked back on a pastoral 1.10-acre corner lot with perennial gardens, apple trees, and granite outcroppings. As you enter through the front door, there is a library with original floor to ceiling windows and bookshelves. The living room has a wood burning fireplace and original built-ins and opens to a large deck overlooking the harbor. With direct access from the entry foyer and the garage, the eat-in kitchen opens to a four-season sunroom with a screen door leading to the breezeway and front porch. The attached barn has been converted into a bright studio and gallery space with its own private entrance and deck. Just steps from the Town dock, a path leads from the porch to easily portage kayaks, stand up paddle boards, boats, or fishing gear to the water, and Up Harbor Marina is conveniently close by for bigger craft. Located in the scenic village of Bernard on the Quiet Side of Mount Desert Island and within walking distance to Back Bay beach, the Bass Harbor library, the Kelly Farm Preserve, and Thurston's, this charming property is perfect for private use or vacation rentals, with the bonus of the existing studio/gallery or a reimagined space.
