For Sale, Lighthouse Point, Deer Isle, Maine
Set atop rocky pink granite just 75 feet from the deep water of the Penobscot Bay, this property offers spectacular ocean views and deserves placement as one of the best oceanfront homes on the market. The architecture of Lighthouse Point is extremely unique and is clearly a showpiece of engineering complexities. Its 5-story lighthouse with top-of-the-world, 360 degree views, blends seamlessly into an open post and beam wing where a 32-foot high great room showcases floor-to-ceiling views of Penobscot Bay, Camden and its nearby, spruce-covered hills.

There is a massive hand-built 32-foot, floor-to-ceiling granite wall with fireplaces on both sides of the wall, one opening to the great room and the other to the gourmet kitchen-breakfast area.

The four-bedroom, 3-bath home also has additional “hidden” features. Tucked away on the lowest level is a lobster holding tank with a pump allowing sea water to circulate from the tank to the ocean. A dumb waiter is concealed in the north wall making it easy to bring groceries up to the kitchen or firewood to the upstairs master bedroom fireplace. The laundry chute connects the master bedroom suite with a lower level laundry in the mud room. The root/wine cellar completes this oceanfront dream home.
The home is located on Deer Isle and easily reached from the mainland by bridge. The island is home to the Haystack Mountain School of Crafts and many art galleries. The islands 12 diverse nature conservancy’s holdings? and deep waters of Penobscot Bay and Eggemoggin Reach are paradise to sailors, kayakers, birders, artisans and naturalists.
Lighthouse Point was originally conceived when the designer was in high school (as a boy, he had summered in the area) and finally built in 1990. The current owners also shared a life-long love of the area and a high school dream of owning a home perched over the water. Lighthouse Point was the realization of their dream and the backdrop for some of their fondest memories.
