Property Description:

The iconic and historic Keeper’s House is a spectacular oceanfront offering on the treasured island of Isle au Haut. Visiting this unique and incredibly beautiful property is like stepping into a postcard. The panoramic and incredibly beautiful views of Penobscot Bay, offshore islands and the distant Camden hills are framed by the beautiful, white-washed Victorian light keeper’s house, the magnificent Robinson Point light tower and bold granite outcroppings. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the main house offers a large kitchen with two gas ranges, granite countertops and incredible views. The dining room is accented by a charming kerosene chandelier and a large window overlooking the lighthouse. The home has 2 bathrooms and 4 bedrooms, all of them with incredible views. The property also includes a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom guest house called the Wood Shed, a large boathouse, a dock with float and two charming 1-bedroom sleeping cabins. The self-sufficient property is powered by photovoltaics and a generator. Drinking water is drawn from the sea through a sophisticated reverse osmosis system. Property is being offered turnkey with all furnishings and equipment. Operated for many years as a world-renowned inn, you now have the rare opportunity to make it yours as a private residence or once again as an inn. The recently-restored light tower is fully automated and is owned and maintained by the town.
