Rustic and simple sanctuary in Downeast Maine

Description

This rustic and simple sanctuary in Downeast Maine sits ten minutes up the road from the ocean, the local co-op, library with high speed internet, Blue Hill mountain, and coastal trails. The peninsula sits between Acadia National Park, Deer Isle, and the Camden Hills. The main space is a simple, 600 sqft cabin that has power and running water, along with a wood stove. The bottom floor is an open layout with a kitchen, living room area, and a bathroom. There is a built in drafting table and bookshelf that overlooks a picture window, perfect for writing and illustrating. The bathroom has a sink, shower, and small washer and dryer. The upstairs is an open loft space, large enough for a bed, dresser, and desk. There is also a wooden yurt tucked in the woods, which can be used for meditative practice or a more isolated work space away from the cabin. There is a large garden shed, outhouse, compost pile (organic, pesticide free), mature apple trees, wild edibles, and garden space. This is a simple, well cared for space, with basic amenities and has been a home to those who wish to live a simple, present life. Further, those who feel comfortable living in a rural place and who enjoy navigating the consistent shifts and needs of a rural homestead. Pesticide and chemical free. Basic carpentry, garden, and land tending skills are necessary to live here.
