About the host
Hosted by Owner & Property Manager
We, Ryan and Ellen Sprague, built this beautiful home on Ledge Lane in 2011. We started clearing the land in 2010, and by May of 2011 we had blasted the ledge and poured concrete. Our builder Brad Hamor, started building our 30x50 ranch styled house the first of July. Four months later, the house was complete, the septic system was finished after that and we moved in on Thanksgiving day in 2011. We were so pleased it took such a short time. We hope you enjoy our dream home as much as we do.
Why they chose this property
This property is for you because it is private and secluded, but only 15-20 miles from Bar Harbor, Schoodic Point, Downtown Ellsworth Shopping, and even closer to many great places to eat.
At Sunset Ledge, you can bike, hike, and kayak at any time. Lounging at the private beach, sitting at the patio, grilling on the porch, whatever you wish, it is possible.

What makes this property unique
At Sunset Ledge you have your own private driveway to walk, run, or ride your bike on. There is a beautiful grassy path to the shore, where you can sit on the ledge or lay on the beach. It is easy to launch your kayak from and you have the whole Skilling's River to explore.
