Property Description
Brookside is a beautifully appointed home in the desirable Denning Brook neighborhood of Somesville Maine. Set along the banks of Denning Brook, with its gently meandering waterway and the soothing sound of flowing water, the property offers an exceptional sense of peace and natural beauty. Winding paths throughout the 2.68-acre grounds further enhance the privacy and serenity of this idyllic setting. This central location, is only minutes from the hiking trails of Acadia National Park and provides easy access to the shops and restaurants of MDI. This immaculately maintained residence features four bedrooms and three full baths, along with a thoughtfully designed open kitchen complete with updated appliances and granite countertops. The home also offers a comfortable dining room and a spacious living room centered around a wood-burning stove, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Doors open to a generous front deck, while a smaller rear deck provides a shaded retreat during the summer months. Additional amenities include hardwood and tile flooring, a new whole-house generator, two heat pumps, high-speed internet, a radon mitigation system, a three-car garage, and a large, dry walk-out basement. As an added benefit, the Town of Mount Desert is in the final stages of assuming ownership of Denning Brook Road, transferring road maintenance costs from the homeowners association to the town.
