At 4 Highlands Lane, the names say it all--Teapot and Popover--two perfectly paired residences on 6.5± private, elevated acres with a sweeping coastal panorama. This one-of-a-kind retreat offers unobstructed views over Northeast Harbor and the Western Way, with a rare vantage stretching to Somes Sound and Southwest Harbor. A short distance from Thuya Garden and the Mount Desert Land & Garden Preserve, the property beautifully combines natural beauty, privacy, and breathtaking scenery. Like a good cup of tea, the year-round main home, Teapot, is designed for comfort and relaxation. Walls of patio doors from the living spaces to the wraparound deck invite a seamless flow to the coastal landscape and offer a front-row seat to spectacular sunsets. The first floor welcomes you with vaulted ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and an updated kitchen that opens to the dining room with ample space for entertaining. A full bath and a spacious bedroom with direct deck access complete this well-designed floor plan, while the upstairs features a dedicated primary suite with an updated bath, a cozy reading nook with a private balcony, and interior windows overlooking the double-height living room and harbor beyond. Just steps away, Popover--as delightful as its pastry namesake--rises to the occasion when guests ''pop over.'' It offers a full kitchen with a living/dining area, two bedrooms, two baths, and a versatile bonus room for play, work, or creative pursuits. For a sweet finish, The Cookie--a whimsical playhouse--adds a final touch of charm and delight. Designed by renowned Maine architect Roc Caivano and meticulously maintained, 4 Highlands Lane blends privacy, flexibility, and a pairing as timeless as tea and popovers--all in one of Mount Desert Island's most coveted locations.
