Overlooking Frenchman’s Bay, Bar Harbor, Maine

Favorite

Offered at $3,750,000

The majestic estate, once owned by William Pearson Hamilton, the great grandson of Alexander Hamilton, and his wife, the daughter of JP Morgan, overlooks picturesque downtown Bar Harbor and Frenchman’s Bay out to the open Atlantic Ocean. The current mansion, created in 1984, boasts marvelous architectural details including massive beams running through the house, floor-to-ceiling windows, a grand marble staircase, a giant chandelier, a nine-foot rosewood elephant in the foyer, and—from the original Hamilton estate—massive granite pillars in the front entry. With a birds-eye view of all the town’s activity, yet with total privacy, the estate’s prestigious perch affords sweeping views of the town, the ocean, and the mountains of Acadia to the right.
