22 S Sutton Island, Cranberry Isles, ME 04625
OCEANFRONT, HISTORIC, PRIVATE LAND, BARN WITH LOFT, BOAT HOUSE
''Moore House' Built by Joseph Moore in 1827. This oceanfront property is situated on the south side of Sutton, looking out across the Gilley Thorofare, to views of Great and Little Cranberry Islands. Sutton Island is one mile south of Mount Desert Island and east of Southwest Harbor. The house is setback from the ocean, on 6.6 acres of private land with 750 feet of oceanfront. This property is a rare find in Maine. The lot is populated with pines, lush foliage, sweet fern, beach roses, sea grasses, bay berry, blueberries and perennials making the grounds fragrant and maintenance free. The Moore House harmoniously blends historic architecture with modern renovations. The beautifully preserved mantels, and wainscoting, from the 1800's, complement the three newly repointed operating fireplaces in the dining room, master bedroom and great room. A Jotul woodstove warms the recently renovated kitchen. Original wide-wood plank floors and multi-pane windows throughout add to the home's distinct qualities. Out of respect for the historic character of the house, windows were added for northern views and interior light, while preserving the houses 1800's character. There is a first-floor primary bedroom and half bath. A slatted outdoor shower is located on the north side of the house. Two light filled bedrooms, on the second floor, feature plentiful windows, closet space, built in cabinetry, bookshelves, and full bath, with clawfoot soaking tub. Outside, a large cedar-shingled barn provides additional storage or entertainment space with a renovated large upper loft. Upgrades include handmade wrought iron banisters and railings, fashioned by local artist Steve Alsup, and new windows. The current owner, an artist/builder, lovingly restored, updated and enjoyed the property for over 26 years. The Moore House is more than a home; it's a serene refuge entwined with nature.
