The best of all worlds awaits at this bright and sunny home in Bar Harbor, where you'll be an easy walk from the bustling heart of downtown yet just as close to the serene, quiet landscapes of Acadia National Park. This two-level home, which occupies one side of a duplex, is full of large windows that let in the light and comfortable furnishings that invite you in after a day spent hiking, kayaking, or riding your bike across the national park. The living room offers views of neighboring Glen Mary Park, while the kitchen is outfitted with plentiful cabinetry, every necessary appliance, and an attached dining room. Toss the day's clothes in the private washer/dryer, light the gas grill to get started on dinner, and take in the golden hour light outside on the deck.
What's nearby:
This home sits on the edge of Glen Mary Park in the southwest corner of Bar Harbor village, a location that's both away from the summer crowds yet delightfully convenient. The Village Green, a wide assortment of charming restaurants and shops, and the Bar Harbor Shore Path can all be found downtown, just half a mile northeast. Acadia National Park and the Park Loop Road are immediately south, with a stop for the free park shuttle just a 12-minute walk from the house (allowing you to avoid the hassles of driving and parking at Acadia's most famous landmarks).
