This house located at 31 Kitt's Crossing in Lamoine, Maine is truly a work of art. I LOVE this kitchen! The best part (besides double ovens, Sub Zero and Viking appliances, huge walk in pantry) is the gorgeous ocean view! The Maine real estate market is heating up for sure. Keep in mind, there is only so much ocean front to "go around" perhaps it is time for you to buy Erica_Brookshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17416271839131122489noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482706843286344122.post-44480306452383706012014-02-27T17:21:00.001-05:002014-02-27T17:23:40.238-05:00March Madness coming upIt is hard to believe that March 2013 was my "slow" month and that March 2014 has 4 things pending to close!

Real estate truly is a great investment, especially here on Mount Desert Island. We are so lucky to have Acadia National Park in our back yard. Some recent goings on:

As June rolls around things are expectedly crazy in Bar Harbor and in my life! Real estate has been a crazy roller coaster these past few months and I am happy to say I have 5 things pending to sell.

Several friends and I went sledding at Indian Trail Park....it was amazing for so many reasons, but mainly because it was my birthday. I've always loved this day of mine.
