Property Description
A tastefully restored c. 1800s Cape with serene water views of the Machias River is located in the village of Machiasport near Liberty Hall, Cooper House, and the Gates House, home of the Machiasport Historical Society. The character and charm of this classic Cape is reflected in many period features such as wide plank floors, 4 fireplaces with original mantels, wavy glass window panes, and much more. The attention to detail in the restoration process sets this home apart from other restored homes of the same vintage. This interior designer's home has been published in several magazines and books.
Enjoy year-round or seasonal coastal living in this antique Cape where time stands still. The main level of the home has a cozy living room, formal dining room, kitchen, library/study, and full bathroom. There are 2 bedrooms plus 2 other rooms on the second level. This is a comfortable and inviting home with versatile living areas for a home office, studio or other use to meet your needs and interests. The original glory and gracefulness of the past is complemented with the modern amenities of an updated kitchen and bathroom. The high ceilings and expansive windows on the main level provide for extensive natural lighting coupled with delightful water views. A detached 1-bay garage completes this total package.
The Machias Bay area is the perfect spot for residents and visitors to enjoy a wide-range of outdoor activities such as kayaking, sailing, hiking, and biking. Nearby Jasper Beach with its unique jasper stones plus crashing surf, Roque Bluffs State Park with a highly acclaimed half-mile sand beach, and the Bold Coast Trail with superb hiking trails along the unspoiled coastline are local treasures.
Settled in 1763, Machiasport is a well-known fishing village and historic coastal community located within minutes from Machias. Machias serves as the commercial, educational, medical, cultural, and governmental center of Maine's easternmost county.
