Welcome to 11 Goldfinch Lane, a light and airy ultra-efficient house (certified Passivhaus) set on more than 290 feet of deep water oceanfront on Newbury Neck in Surry. A sloping path leads down to a gravel beach perfect for swimming, playing or launching kayaks. Designed by Phil Kaplan of the renowned Kaplan and Thompson Architects, this three-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home is a model of state-of-the-art energy use and sustainability. With 36 solar panels generating more power than the house consumes and a whole-house ERV system providing clean, filtered air, the home's environmentally conscious design creates a uniquely comfortable and energy-saving year-round living space. The primary bedroom and bathroom are conveniently located on the first floor, and the open layout brings plenty of natural light throughout. A deck facing the water and a three-season porch offer serene views of the mountains of Acadia National Park across the bay, while the beautiful gardens with stone walls add to the charm. Inside, the house feels sheltered and quiet, with 18-inch walls and triple-pane glass, and there are ocean and mountain views from almost every room. Heating and cooling are powered by Mitsubishi heat pumps, and a backup generator is in place for peace of mind. The two-car garage includes a level 2 car charger, with an additional area upstairs for storage. Practical features like fiber optic internet, triple-pane windows, and solid maple floors complement the home's thoughtful design. Located 20 minutes from Ellsworth or Blue Hill, this property combines convenience with spectacular views. Biking, hiking, swimming, and kayaking are accessible directly from the property; no car needed! Imagine living in a very comfortable house with net-zero energy use where utility bills are minimal and fresh air flows continuously. 11 Goldfinch Lane is more than a home - it's a statement of sustainability and comfort, surrounded by the beauty and magic of the Blue Hill Peninsula.
