This custom built Bar Harbor home has an exceptional view overlooking Kebo Golf Course, the 9th oldest golf course in the United States. Tucked in the woods on Mount Desert Island in a private setting only a few minutes from the many shops and restaurants of Bar Harbor, it is surrounded by the rugged beauty of Acadia National Park and the sounds of whispering pine and seagulls combined with the scent of an ocean breeze. This is truly a stunning location to have as your home base during your Maine vacation. (View Virtual Tour)
