Description

A Timeless Treasure with Endless Possibilities on Mount Desert Island-- Imagine owning a piece of Mount Desert Island history—an enchanting 1911 summer church surrounded by the natural beauty of Maine, with views toward Seal Cove Pond and Western Mountain, part of Acadia National Park. Set on 1.34 acres, this remarkable property offers a rare combination of historic character, natural beauty, and extraordinary potential for both commercial and residential use. Inside, the soul of the original chapel remains beautifully intact. A soaring cathedral ceiling and magnificent vaulted timbers create an unforgettable sense of volume and light, while the simple, graceful architecture provides an inspiring canvas for its next chapter. A small kitchen and first-floor half bath offer convenience, while the expansive, open and dry basement adds substantial flexibility for future use. The property has benefited from important improvements, including a new roof and structural repairs completed between 2024 and 2026. An oil-fired heating system, private well, and septic system are already in place. The possibilities are truly compelling. Envision an intimate and unforgettable wedding or event venue, a destination for retreats or creative gatherings, a distinctive commercial space, or perhaps a spectacular conversion into a year-round residence or vacation home. The chapel's dramatic interior could become an extraordinary living space, while the acreage and surrounding landscape offer room to imagine something uniquely your own. With its historic architecture, peaceful setting and proximity to all that makes Mount Desert Island so special, this is far more than a property—it is an opportunity to preserve a piece of the island's past while creating an exceptional future. Rarely does a property of this character, setting, and versatility become available. Come discover what is possible!
