372 Bald Head Road, Arrowsic, ME 04530 (MLS# 1499481)

A perfect pitch blend of rustic charm with contemporary finishes makes this a spectacular one-of-a-kind residence. This idyllic property is both spacious and unique. The frame of the home originates from an 1850's barn, relocated from New Hampshire. Despite its contemporary conversion, the structure showcases its original details through its exposed hand-hewn beams, still wearing numbered plates from the piece-by-piece reassembly on site. The current owners have refreshed and expanded the interiors with a talented Maine-based team that included Theodore & Theodore Architects, interior designer James Light and Dave Bourne Building. Custom white oak cabinetry was fashioned by Tom Brokish of Touchwood. The interiors now include 3 finished floors plus a sleeping loft encompassing nearly 5000 square feet of carefully curated interior space. The result is an extraordinary take on Barn vernacular with modern conveniences. As you enter you are greeted by a dramatic two story front entry framed by carbon steel and mahogany railings rising to the cantilevered second floor landing. Your experience is enhanced by the beautiful Solaria chandelier overhead. The floor-plan is open, but includes a number of private spaces. The homes 5 beautiful bedrooms are framed by exposed beams - the master bedroom's privacy is accentuated by two large bespoke wardrobes. Outside, landscape architect Anthony Muench was called on to enhance the natural surroundings using extensive native plants and stone. The perfect privacy is evident as you take the long winding drive from Bald Head road. The arching stone wall leads you to the circular drive and you begin to fully appreciate the quality of what is essentially your own private nature preserve. Approximately 35 acres of upland, tidal frontage and golden marsh guarantee peace and solitude. Having said that, the midcoast location near Bath, Brunswick and close in proximity to Portland insure that every amenity is close at hand.
