About this home

The sights and sounds of York Harbor take center stage at this sophisticated and charming historic home, just a short walk from Harbor Beach, the York Harbor Marina, shops, restaurants, a public boat ramp, and more. With 168' +/-along York Harbor, this well-maintained 6-bedroom, 4-bath Dutch Colonial dates back to 1682 and has hosted many generations, serving as both a classic summer retreat and a year-round residence. Spread over more than 4,300 sq. ft., each room has its own character, unified by hardwood floors, custom millwork, wainscoting, built-in cabinets, and three fireplaces. The main level features a spacious farmhouse-style eat-in kitchen, a formal dining room with a wet bar, a living room, and a library/den, all with wood-burning fireplaces. An extra room adjacent to the living area functions as an entertainment space or home office and features a full bath. Upstairs are the residence's six bedrooms and three full baths. The property also includes an oversized 2-car garage with a private side entry to a second-floor bedroom and new bath, plus a sizable family or bonus room with gleaming wood floors. Situated along Fisherman's Walk, the front porch, patio, and yard are perfect spots for entertaining and taking in the bustling harbor and sea breezes. A short stroll from the home leads to York Village, York Harbor Beach, and York's local restaurants and shops. This fully updated, expanded historic property is not only a potential income-generating waterfront residence but also a desirable real estate investment in Maine's coastal market. Combining historic charm, modern updates, and a prime location, it commands excellent seasonal or year-round rental income. An easy transition to your new address awaits; this home is move-in ready, and nothing needs to be done.
