RG109 Two Houses on 10 Acres with 800+ feet on Ecologically Diverse & Undiscovered Grand Marsh, Gouldsboro
With 800+ feet right where Grand Marsh Bay opens into the wide, wild, and glorious Grand Marsh, this is one of the finest locations that will ever be available on the Marsh because of the 750 acres protected beyond it. Two year-round homes are each sited on five acres of this 10-acre tract.
PRICE REDUCED $647,000
The main house is an artisan’s delight with its lofts, architectural angles, art glass, porthole window, and hand-crafted wood block & bent sapling spiral stair. The massive native stone fireplace and chimney anchor this substantially constructed home; and crowning it all is a private eyrie that looks out over the Bay and sky. The second home is nestled in the woods, all on one level, with woodstove and front porch. Great as guest house or rental. Both homes have excellent rental history.
Grand Marsh over the past millennia has created beyond it the massive and undisturbed Corea Heath that has only recently been discovered, one of only two left in all of North America. In 2007, Frenchman Bay Conservancy put 600 acres of the Heath into conservation. Volunteer groups are beginning to create trails, unfolding all the wonders of the Marsh and Heath, natural areas essential to life cycles of birds and other wildlife of not only the Schoodic Peninsula but the entire Atlantic Coast.
A kayak. A solitary figure among the stillness of the marsh and the sky. Peace.

The wonders of Acadia’s Schoodic Peninsula are boundless and virtually undiscovered. The national park’s dramatic scenery is among the best in Maine, but still quiet and private, inspiring artists from around the world. Quaint villages with white spires, lobster fleets at rest, galleries, studios, shops, and restaurants dot this tiny peninsula. The village of Winter Harbor, with golf course, yacht club, ferry to Bar Harbor, and lobster festival is the home of the nationally known Schoodic Arts Festival with its impressive venue of year-round performing arts and the biennial International Sculpture Symposium. Schoodic: Uncrowded. Unspoiled. Savor the unexpected. www.acadia-schoodic.org, www.schoodicartsforall.org
