Home Details
ARDENSEA- Perched on the eastern side of Isle au Haut, Ardensea is a truly unique and breathtaking property set on an elevated 18± acre parcel. It offers sweeping views of Battery Island, the Turnip Yard, York Island, and the vast Gulf of Maine. With 1,090 feet of shore frontage, it provides an ideal canvas for creating a remarkable home, a sprawling compound, or restoring the historic Victorian cottage known as Ardensea.
Sitting atop a hill, Ardensea offers a spectacular vantage point to take in the ocean scenery and passing boats. The 3-bedroom, 1-bath cottage was originally designed and built by literary scholars Charlotte Endymion Porter and Helen Archibald Clarke, co-founders of the magazine Poet Lore. The living room features a fireplace inscribed with a quote from Shakespeare's The Tempest, written in Porter's hand: 'The air breathes upon us here most sweetly. Here is everything advantageous to life.'
Ardensea is a rare opportunity to own a piece of history in a setting that is nothing short of magical.
