Superprivates Traumhaus mit Blick auf den Sonnenuntergang

I'm a business owner in New York who revels in the peace and natural beauty of the unspoiled Blue Hill Peninsula.

After vacationing for some years in Maine, I decided to build a house. I chose Caterpillar Hill for the views and soon found 12 acres that seemed perfect. Working with a local architect who had trained at the Yale School of Architecture, we discussed the plans for a year before we were ready to build. The house would hug the site and, because I wanted a space where a family could gather but also have alone time, it would spread out like a pinwheel on one level, with steps to accommodate the slope of the site. No detail was overlooked and the end result was the house I had always wanted. It's welcoming, calm, and peaceful. And it's very hard to leave.

With plenty of space for families and groups of friends to gather, the house also offers plenty of privacy with the bedrooms occupying two separate wings. Three full baths mean that no one ever has to wait. An open-plan kitchen is perfect for gathering over cocktails while cooking together. Plenty of seating indoors and out, with a comfortable sofa and armchairs on the large screened porch. Plan to spend time at the house because you won't want to tear yourself away.
