Designed by Fred L. Savage, a local talent, who in the late 1800s studied architecture under the firm of Peabody and Stearns, returned to become one of the most influential architects in the area. ''Harborside'' was originally designed as part of the Harborside community. In its original concept Harborside was comprised of seven waterfront homes with a communal dining area. Harborside has been extensively updated by the architectural firm Kroger Woods Associates, bringing into play the original details with countless new amenities in craftsmanship of old. With the harbor and outer island vistas, this 5-bedroom home offers both in-town Northeast Harbor, and four season living on a spectacularly sited shorefront lot. Residence: The gambrel gable entrance, which is signature Savage style, opens to the Foyer and blends the airy and understated elegance of this residence. The inviting Library with fireplace is tucked of the Foyer. The Living Room is flanked with windows bowing to the harbor, built-in bookshelves and a fireplace that lends toward relaxation. A well laid out Dining Room is accessed from the Living Room or the kitchen through pocket doors. Both are open to the
porches that take in the dynamic south facing view of Northeast Harbor. The Kitchen is bright and cheerful with decorative floors, and a pantry, designed with a professional chef in mind. Recently built Mud Room off kitchen.
