Overlook is a truly remarkable ocean front property aptly named for its panoramic views across Penobscot Bay and nearby islands. The property features an exquisitely restored antique Cape-style home and is currently one of the last, large privately held parcels left on this Mid-Coast at 35 acres with 800 feet of easily accessible sand and pebble beach. For boaters, its substantial water depth also allows for deep water mooring. The expansive acreage provides endless possibilities for creating an expanded private estate, a family compound or a multi-site potential development. The property includes numerous elevated water view and waterfront sites with cleared vistas of the water along with easy walking paths to the beach and water's edge. This timeless Cape overlooking Penobscot Bay represents the best of quintessential New England architecture. The multi-year renovation completed by Taylor-Made Builders, has transformed this historic home into a distinguished four-season residence equipped with the best of modern technology, while still maintaining its original classic charm. The open kitchen, dining room, and living room is perfect for family gatherings and entertaining, connecting the indoor spaces to the outdoor spaces with French doors leading to the covered porch and large patio. There are three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and an additional room that could have multiple uses including a guest room, office, or playroom. A separate laundry and utility room are also on site. Thankfully, while the house feels very private and surrounded by nature, it is only an easy 10 to 15 minute drive to the rich year-round cultural events in Camden, Rockport, and Belfast. Also available with less acreage - see MLS #1625579
