Tranquility, a private estate on Frenchman Bay in Hull’s Cove, a quiet village in Bar Harbor, presents a rare family compound of three fully appointed year-round residences with a separate guest/caretaker apartment. This unprecedented enclave is located on 10± serene, parklike acres with 1,100’ of deepwater shorefront on the grounds of a former estate. The shoreline of Hulls Cove is an area of large parcels and historic mansions, not far from the colorful village of Bar Harbor; Tranquility preserves the quiet ambiance of a significant residence with vestiges of the original estate and its’ elegant gardens. In this registered wildlife preserve, deer, fox, and bunnies wander throughout the property as eagles soar overhead. Paths meander throughout the property, around and over a gentle stream and reflecting pond; graceful arched bridges cross the stream, with teak and granite benches along the paths. An heirloom orchard graces a quiet corner of the property and leads to the water. A granite fire pit is located in a setting apart from the main house for evening marshmallow roasting, as are croquet and bocce courts. Several staircases access the beaches and rocky shoreline, and a deep water dock with electrical power and water service provides access to two offshore moorings. 

Throughout this property, the level of attention to detail and exceptional care is apparent at every turn. Tranquility is an estate of unusual quality and scale on Frenchman Bay, with three exceptional residences set in a beautiful, very private, garden setting. Tranquility is a unique offering; an unparalleled retreat for the senses.

• Tranquility’s main, architect designed house at the water’s edge has a spacious Great Room, with open living/dining/kitchen area, complimented by a vaulted, soaring ceiling and large oceanside windows; a sweeping, elegantly curved stairway highlights the welcoming entrance foyer. A quiet office, den with breakfast room, screened porch, and en suite bedroom with private deck are all found on the first floor; the second floor has a second primary en suite bedroom with private deck and two additional bedrooms.

An additional two-car storage garage and greenhouse is also at this site.
