So much history has happened during the lifespan of this stylish, period cape built in 1775, constructed the same year of the Battle of the Margaretta, the first sea fight of the American Revolutionary War. Elevated views span straight-up the Machias River from the entertaining, private, back-deck and are a colorful joy as one may take-in the sun and moon rise over the eastern ridge and watch them slowly settle on the western ridge. Placed in the heart of Machias, it is a short stroll, or roll, to the riverfront's rails-to-trails, shopping, commerce, and eateries. Housed inside, the original character and construction is an homage to living with the generations who have called this warm cape home. Modern conveniences are designed to coexist with the setting. The original fireplaces and central chimney are a marvel to see so preserved. This two-bedroom, two-bath home is a ready showcase to gather with family and friends. The upper-level is ideal as a primary suite with a private bath, and the first-floor bedroom is perfect for guests with the second bathroom/laundry room. The added detached two-car garage has a bright, backside room, dubbed the 'solarium' and is a wonderful three-season option to view the attractive lawn and for meeting with guests to share a yarn or two. A home for a simple and elegant life awaits you here.

Newly sided, this quaint cottage near the ocean and Maine fishing village with views of Little Machias Bay is ready for all buyers. First floor bedroom, bathroom, eat-in kitchen, living room, dining room and laundry hook-up. Great back deck with French doors; a good spot to listen to the brook babble. Home is light and bright with two second floor bedrooms and large storage closet. Enjoy being on a peninsula in the late summer evening when the cool breeze rolls in. Great as a year round home or summer retreat with rental history.

One-floor ranch interior brought down to the studs and awaits a new buyer to reconstruct the interior with walls, add a bath, a kitchen, and a heat source, to make it a home again. Recently it has had the siding, doors, and windows replaced. This home can return to a three-bedroom, one-bath because it has a septic system on the property rated for a three-bedroom, the HHE-200 is available for review. This building is also a good location to become a business as it is about a half mile from Route 1. Many possibilities await your ideas to tailor this building to you.
