Dartholm sits along quiet Shore Road in Southwest Harbor, overlooking a picturesque harbor and offering a rich coastal heritage. Once the summer residence of a Dartmouth College president--lending the home its distinctive name--it has been thoughtfully updated into a gracious shingle-style cottage suited for comfortable year-round living. Expansive views stretch across Somes Sound, the Cranberry Islands, and Acadia’s mountains, with yachts and lobster boats passing by. Beautifully restored, the home blends classic charm with modern amenities, featuring five bedrooms, including two on the first floor, along with inviting living and dining spaces, a chef’s kitchen, and den. A newer, fully winterized addition includes the kitchen, dining area, and primary suite with geothermal heat, while other sections remain seasonal. A one-bedroom guest house, private dock, moorings, landscaped grounds, and proximity to Southwest Harbor’s shops and dining complete this exceptional waterfront offering.

Mount Desert Island, the Blue Hill Peninsula, and the Down East Coast are popular for their
scenic beauty and recreational opportunities, as well as the many quaint villages that
provide the quality of life many are seeking. With Acadia National Park in our backyard,
along with a variety of protected lands accessible to the public, this part of Maine provides
endless year-round recreational opportunities. The advent of remote work, in conjunction
with the access to broadband internet options, has seen many owners transition from
seasonal summer residency to the full year-round experience. This quest for a better
quality of life has brought a new vibrancy to many communities.


Our Northeast Harbor office is committed to understanding the market, our buyer and
seller priorities, and ultimately the connection of both.


Founded in 1968, LandVest | Christie’s International Real Estate is one of New England’s
largest and longest-operating independent real estate firms, dedicated exclusively to
