Nestled in the woods, yet centrally located in the town of Mount Desert, this very private property, aptly named ''Fishway'', enjoys the gentle sounds of Ripples Brook, a passageway for fish from Long Pond to Ripples Pond and beyond to Somes Sound and is surrounded by lands in resource protection. From its expansive south-facing deck and interior sitting area (the ''Lounge'') with wall-to-wall sliding glass doors and one of three cozy propane stoves, this year-round home with 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths,...Nestled in the woods, yet centrally located in the town of Mount Desert, this very private property, aptly named ''Fishway'', enjoys the gentle sounds of Ripples Brook, a passageway for fish from Long Pond to Ripples Pond and beyond to Somes Sound and is surrounded by lands in resource protection. From its expansive south-facing deck and interior sitting area (the ''Lounge'') with wall-to-wall sliding glass doors and one of three cozy propane stoves, this year-round home with 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, one car garage, plus 12kw manual generator and hot tub room, is perfect for enjoying all the seasons of MDI. Deeded access to the private Kimball Camp beach for swimming, kayak/canoe launching and ice skating is just a short stroll away as is the organic, Beech Hill Farm and just minutes to Acadia National Park's Western Mountains and trails. Plus, membership privileges to Somes Landing on the Sound.
