Maine property doesn’t get much more remote than this

The island estate is built for one, plus a guest

Maine‘s moneyed east coast gets its fair share of gawkers. But not this island on West Penobscot Bay, unknown by Google Maps. Splayed across North Haven’s northwest shore, this new listing sits on 25 private acres landscaped by Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates, with 1,080 feet of granite shorefront and pebble beach. From several curated outdoor living areas, the property gets its own gawking rights over the bay to the Camden Hills.

The house was designed by renowned architect Toshiko Mori with one expansive bedroom and an open layout of living and dining areas in a neutral palette of natural materials. Privacy is guarded with the addition of a guest barn, also designed by Mori, containing the garage below. A clean-lined lap pool extends from the main house.

Rare for Maine property, this one has a private 0.6-acre parcel on the mainland at Bartlett Harbour, with 24 feet of shorefront for ease of transport. The estate is currently listed with Christie’s for $8,985,000.
