About this home

Charming 1885 Home in the Heart of Bar Harbor Tucked away on a quiet dead-end road in downtown Bar Harbor, this cozy 1885 home offers character, convenience, and exciting potential. The home features one comfortable bedroom plus a second room currently used as an office, making it ideal for a small residence, vacation getaway, or work-from-home retreat.

Located just steps from Bar Harbor's vibrant downtown, you'll enjoy easy access to local shops, restaurants, and waterfront attractions. Plus,
