About this home
A rare opportunity to own one of Wells' most recognizable landmarks.

The attached commercial space offers exceptional flexibility for a variety of business ventures (subject to local approvals), creating the unique opportunity to live, work, and invest all in one location. Whether continuing its commercial legacy or reimagining the space, the possibilities are endless. Enjoy easy access to Drakes Island Beach via a right-of-way walking path to Drakes Island Road, combining coastal living with unmatched history and opportunity. Rich in character, deeply rooted in the community, and filled with potential, this is a property unlike any other.
