26 Gard Boulevard, Tremont, ME 04653
Derived from Old Norse origins, the name Gard translates to ''enclosure or protection'' symbolizing the importance of safeguarding and creating safe spaces. Built with intention and creating those safe spaces, the Gard House exceeds conventional building standards to achieve superior energy efficiency, durability, indoor air quality, and overall health and comfort. Constructed in 2024, the ''high performance'' house is a healthy and efficient home made with non-toxic materials, New Zealand sheep wool insulation, and a Lunos Energy Recovery Ventilation system that brings fresh air in and stale air out. Nestled on 2.31 private acres and abutting Acadia National Park's Ship Harbor, it's a short mossy forest walk to the Atlantic coastline where the Bass Harbor Light is in your backyard. It's so quiet you can hear the bell buoy and the contact of waves on the rocks in the stillness. Blending the surrounds and bathed in light, the house's purposeful design is full of beauty --- shadow box windows and doorways from Maine-milled white pine (no drywall), exposed soldered copper pipes, cedar exterior, historically accurate wood double-hung windows, and a Morso wood stove in the living room. The kitchen has live edge wood with stainless steel counters, an electric Bertazzoni range, and a Smeg refrigerator. The bath has a 67'' cast iron clawfoot tub surrounded by handmade Zellige Moroccan tiles with over-sized Turkish towels waiting on the vintage brass hooks. Beautiful stairs lead to two very large bedrooms, one with the same wallpaper and batten effect that greets you in the mudroom entry. Since the property was photographed, loam and bluestone garden paths are in progress. The photos capture the property's essence, but experiencing it live is truly special. Seller is willing to sell furnished, and/or rent back over the winter and act as property manager.
