Property Description

Lovingly restored shed roof cabin on private 16 +/- wooded acres on Blue Hill Peninsula. Originally built in 1970 by a friend of Helen and Scott Nearing, the pioneers of the early ''back to the land movement'', the cabin has been brought back to life with modern touches and a reverence for the past. Updates include many passive house building standards, including a tight building envelope with 8'' combined Rockwool insulation, and new wide plank siding using a Japanese wood burning method called Shou Shugi Ban. Sleek and high-performance Marvin windows are found throughout the home, which creates a feeling of continuity with the outdoors and helps maximize the passive solar potential of the home. Other features include Rinnai programmable direct vent wall furnace, Rinnai super high efficiency tankless water heater, top of the line Kinetico water filtration system, and LG front-loading washing machine. The warmth and integrity of the cabin remains featuring original wood beams, tongue & groove flooring, a loft and a stunning hand-built stone hearth that is the backdrop to a Jotül EPA 2020 certified wood stove. The cedar shake sided front porch with clear corrugated roof and clay plaster walls is a nod to the original porch which also functioned as a greenhouse. The open concept living and dining area open up to an expansive view of the garden with floor to ceiling windows. A sculptural high bush blueberry is perfectly framed in the foreground, and carefully selected heirloom apples, and other newly established fruit trees surround the herb and vegetable beds. At the top of the driveway, the new German made Hoklartherm polycarbonate greenhouse is a perfect addition to the homestead as a companion for Winter growing and season extension. Wake up with panoramic woodland views, enjoying the sounds of the resident hermit thrushes, and close proximity to Wight Pond and Northern Bay of the Bagaduce River. This property also features several useful outbuildings.
