About the Listing 2259 - 010949
This extraordinary 97-acre property on North Haven Island is a rare blend of natural wonder and cultivated beauty. At its center is an 1828 saltwater farmhouse, lovingly preserved by generations to maintain historic character while offering modern comfort and convenience. The entire acreage is an arboretum, with hundreds of tree and shrub varieties, chosen for visual appeal, fruit, and seasonal bloom. Cleared fields transition into shaded glades and old-growth hardwood forest, with gently sloping terrain throughout. Along the shorefront, several ideal building sites overlook a protected cove with a 400-foot pebble-and-sand beach (at low tide), perfect for swimming and boating. A nature-formed, spring-fed ''infinity pond'' sits dramatically at the ocean's edge — 1/10th mile long and swimmable. The views are nothing short of spectacular: Penobscot Bay's islands and the Camden Hills form a sweeping, ever-changing backdrop. The land is ideal for a private retreat or family compound, with ample room for additional structures that feel remote yet remain connected. Amenities abound: a large, modern two-story barn (originally designed as a second home); a two-car garage and tool house; a six-bay outbuilding for vehicles, boats, hay, or equipment; three freshwater ponds for swimming, canoeing, or rafting; and several miles of groomed trails. There's a wisteria-draped arbor for quiet contemplation, a large pasture for livestock or horses, deer-proof vegetable gardens, a grape arbor, and an enclosed orchard of peaches, apricots, cherries, plus an historic pear and apple orchard beside the house. A family cemetery, carefully documented and dating to 1817, adds a further layer of meaning and history. Though meticulously tended, the property feels wild, peaceful, and alive — a truly magical place where the natural and nurtured coexist in rare harmony.
