42 Dwelly Point Road

About this home

Nestled on the quiet peninsula of Dwelly Point in Franklin, this exceptional 3.3-acre waterfront parcel offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and convenience. Carefully planned to preserve generous space between neighboring properties, the lot features a blend of open meadow, mature hardwoods and evergreens. The 200+ feet of frontage on scenic Taunton Bay is highlighted by sea grasses, granite stones, and oak trees. Enjoy direct access to the bay from your own shorefront--perfect for launching a kayak or paddleboard and exploring the area's protected waters and coastal scenery. Dwelly Point residents also enjoy access to a shared waterfront common area at the tip of the peninsula, complete with a boat launch, kayak storage rack, and peaceful sitting areas overlooking the bay. Despite its tranquil, rural setting, the property is conveniently located just 18 minutes from Ellsworth, 45 minutes from Bar Harbor, and approximately 1 hour 30 minutes from Bangor International Airport. With a driveway and partial septic system already in place, much of the groundwork has been completed to prepare for home building. Whether you're planning a year-round residence or a coastal retreat, this beautiful waterfront parcel offers an outstanding opportunity to enjoy the best of Maine's Downeast coast.
