Perched beautifully at the entrance to Somes Sound on Mt Desert Island, Shutters on The Sound showcases stunning scenery of the Sound, bordered by the majestic peaks of Acadia National Park and complimented by the lush meadows of preserved lands. This picturesque setting attracts many photographers and artists trying to encapsulate its beauty.
Constructed in the 1940s, this year-round, shingle-style cottage in Maine exudes charm with its wood accents like beam ceilings, paneled walls, and hardwood floors throughout. A sunny, waterside enclosed porch offers a perfect spot to enjoy the warm sunlight while taking in the spectacular views. There is a bedroom on the first floor, and four additional bedrooms on the second floor provide space for family and friends.
For years, real estate along Somes Sound has been in high demand as a premier location for waterfront estates, with many holding a restricted westerly view across the Sound. In contrast, Shutters on the Sound presents a unique chance to enjoy a southerly view extending the length of the Sound, framed by the mountains on the east and west sides. Every day offers new vistas as the sun and tides create mesmerizing displays on the mountains and water, providing a continually evolving scene that lifts the spirit.
