About this home
Step back in time at this circa 1922 Downeast cottage, a rustic and historic retreat tucked away on a peaceful 0.65± acre ridge in Lubec, Maine. Once home to workers from the area's long-departed sardine factories, this charming property offers 2 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, partial ocean views peeking through the trees, and a spacious deck to bask in nature & soak in the fresh salt air. Filled with original character, the home features hardwood floors, exposed beams, tin ceilings, crown molding, and dual staircases. Thoughtful updates in recent years include a full septic system, heat pumps, appliances, the addition of a second full bathroom, updated electrical and plumbing, a Rinnai hot water heater, a versatile 12' x 20' garage/shed, and more. The home will be sold furnished, offering a turnkey, move-in ready opportunity. Currently enjoyed as a 3-season cottage, it was once used for year-round living. Just minutes from hiking trails, public beaches, local shopping, and the picturesque fishing village of Lubec, this property is truly a small slice of Downeast paradise.
