30 Hardys Hill Road

Known as the ''Captain Hardy House'' this wonderful 1900 island cottage has a great deal of charm and well-preserved antiquity. Situated in North Deer Isle, the house sits on 1.81 acres with a mix of lawn, trees and wild blueberry bushes. While the house retains most of its original character, the first floor space was completely opened up into a bright, light-filled space thanks to the addition of large picture windows and a sliding door onto the deck. Three spacious bedrooms have partial views to Penobscot Bay, Camden Hills and the Eggemoggin Reach on the North Side. The South and West sides of the house have a wide deck and the North side has a glassed-in porch to enjoy the outside with protection against cool, ocean breezes. An additional separate building at one time home to ''Once Upon an Island'' gift shop offers many possibilities from workshop or studio to garage or even guest quarters. From this location you'll have close proximity to three public beaches: Ferry Landing, Causeway Beach and Bridge End Park as well as numerous hiking trails. Enjoy the convenience of being at the top of the island which means traveling to Blue Hill and surrounding towns is almost as quick as driving to Stonington. The owners have taken great care of this house and with most of the furnishings included it is ready for occupancy!
