About this property
Artists Retreat - Stunning, Well Landscaped Home
The Artist's Retreat is a charming and timeless oceanfront home located on the picturesque shores of Northwest Harbor on Deer Isle. This four-bedroom, two-bathroom retreat offers breathtaking views of the water and owns over 300 feet of shoreline and 5 private acres of land. Enjoy a western-facing deck where guests can watch the tides rise and fall as well as stunning sunsets from this scenic and special location.
The Artist's Retreat is set in a private, beautifully landscaped setting, surrounded by lush greenery and gardens, providing a peaceful and tranquil environment. The interior is designed with a blend of comfort and elegance, featuring tasteful furnishings and select pieces of artwork that enhance the artistic vibe of the space. The home is also flooded with natural light, thanks to numerous custom windows, many of which offer stunning ocean views.
On the first floor, you'll find two bedrooms, one with a king size bed, that may also be converted to make 2 separate twin beds, and another room consisting of 2 twin beds. The bathroom layout is designed for convenience, with the toilet separated from the shower, so multiple guests can use the facilities at once. The kitchen is a highlight, featuring a bay window that overlooks the manicured lawn and offers views of the pristine waters of East Penobscot Bay. The living room is cozy and inviting, with large windows bringing in natural light and the beauty of the surroundings.
The second floor features two additional bedrooms. The spacious master bedroom features a king bed and a lovely view of Northwest Harbor. The queen bedroom also known as the the artist's studio bedroom has a queen bed, a seating area and a large Palladium window looking out over the water.
These bedrooms share a well designed split bathroom, which includes a toilet room with its own sink, then a bathroom with a full bathtub, a shower and an additional sink.
The outdoor spaces at Artist’s Retreat are truly remarkable. Guests can explore the expansive gardens, relax on the dreamy seaside deck system, or take in the views from the shaded platform near the ocean. There is also direct access to the shore via stairs, allowing for easy exploration of the coastal landscape. For added enjoyment, the property includes a fire pit, making evenings spent on the porch or by the water a special part of the Deer Isle experience.
The Artist’s Retreat offers a peaceful and secluded escape, making it an ideal destination for those looking to unwind and reconnect with nature in a beautiful and private setting.

CANCELLATION POLICY All cancellations must be in writing and received by Agent. Cancellations may only be made between the date that a reservation deposit is received and a date determined to be 45 days prior to the tenants scheduled arrival date. Cancelations within 45 days of arrival will not result in a refund in whole or part of rental monies received. If a cancellation is made prior to 45 days of arrival, the Agent shall, as an accommodation to the Tenant, make an effort to re-rent the property at the published rate for the rental term reserved. No refund of rents paid will be made until the canceled period is re-rented and confirmed. If the canceled period is re-rented, any rent and taxes paid will be refunded less a $100 administrative fee. If the re-rental amount is less than the published rate, any difference in rental rate remains the sole obligation of the tenant. If the unit is not re-rented, all rents paid, processing fees and taxes shall be forfeited as damages. This cancellation policy is strictly followed. Tenants are encouraged to purchase travel insurance for all vacations to cover many situations that may arise that might cause one to cancel vacation plans. There are many independent insurance providers available to tenants. I understand that the insurance company holds this policy and that The Island Agency does not determine eligibly of claims.
