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.

Wonderful stay with ideal September weather

This is a lovely house and property accessible down a long, secluded lane from the nearby road. It is close to the Deer Isle Village that has arts and crafts stores, a public library and lovely little coffee shop. The house is in extremely good condition with lovely views of the water. There are decks on both the East and West sides of the house with the major windows facing South. The house is also surrounded by a lovely woodland garden that contributes to the serene atmosphere. The house is located in an area in which there is an abundance of walks easily accessible within a few minutes drive. We were also surprised and pleased to see how well the house has been maintained and how well equipped it was.

Fall family vacation

Our stay at Artist Retreat was wonderful! The views were absolutely incredible!! The house was surrounded by local hiking trails and close to Acadia there was so much to do. The house was clean and fully stocked with everything we could have needed being away from home. The Island Agency was very responsive with any questions we had. Would love to come back another time!
