Built in 1828, Captain John Berry smartly sited his house and barn on a rise, with acreage over looking and surrounded by classic farm fields. Having had only three owners until 1999, In the two years following that sale, the house was meticulously and lovingly restored being continuously maintained since then while carefully preserving period details. An incredible kitchen with breakfast nook, overlooking the ten-acre pasture, opens into a full pantry with extra refrigerator, open shelving and cabinets, a formal dining room, and lovely living room with long westerly views. One bedroom suite is on the first floor with the other three on the second floor, the sage suite, the blue suite and the honeymoon suite each with private full baths are all tastefully appointed. The interior layout is perfect for a Bed and Breakfast with the first floor suite, possible owners quarters. The large detached barn has a newly floored hayloft, a new roof, and mostly new exterior paint. The large back deck, accessed from the living room and kitchen, is the place for magical sunsets looking across the fenced pasture. A smaller barn toward the south boundary line has two horse stalls and tack room. Bordered by conservation land, there is access to Old Pond, a saltwater cove. This road with historical homes and farm fields make it one of the most uniformly beautiful roads in eastern Maine. There are five excellent restaurants within a five-mile radius of Hancock Point, where there are four har-true tennis courts, a summer library, anchorage, dock, and beach with conserved land parcels along the road for interesting hikes. Here on the farm, you are half way between Acadia National Park on MDI and the Schoodic Peninsula branch. Only eight miles to Ellsworth, this location is convenient to all points east, west, north and south.
