Enjoy coastal living without the waterfront taxes! This impeccably maintained 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath ranch in GOULDSBORO is move-in ready and perfectly positioned to take advantage of the area's natural beauty. From the covered front porch that spans the length of the home, you'll enjoy views across the bay toward Mount Desert Island--a peaceful setting for morning coffee, afternoon reading, or watching the cruise ships dock in Bar Harbor. Inside, the thoughtfully designed single-level floor plan is comfortable to live in and easy to maintain. Heat pumps provide efficient heating and cooling throughout the seasons, while the full unfinished basement offers abundant storage. Situated on a quiet street, this place offers more potential than meets the eye. With some selective shrub clearing, the water views could be exponentially expanded. A storage shed provides space for lawn equipment and outdoor gear, while the surrounding yard offers space for gardening, recreation, or future landscaping projects. One of this property's greatest advantages is its location. Just a three-minute walk from the front door, you'll find a public launch for kayaks and other small watercraft, along with a rocky beach where you can enjoy the water without paying the premium for oceanfront ownership. Nearby Schoodic Peninsula and Acadia National Park offer endless opportunities for hiking, biking, boating, and exploring Maine's spectacular coastline, while Bar Harbor's restaurants, shops, and attractions are within easy reach. Whether you're searching for a year-round home, a seasonal retreat, or a place to enjoy the quieter side of Downeast Maine, this Gouldsboro property is one to see.
