Property Description
This pristine oceanfront property is quintessential Maine. Point of Main is a wonderful, off-grid saltwater farm boasting ever changing views of Machias Bay. Directly SE is the Libby Island lighthouse which has guided seafarers through the surrounding islands and reefs since 1823. Located in Starboard village, this 207-acre parcel includes forests, pastures, heaths, a blueberry field, and dramatic cliff faces rising from cobble and sand beaches. The views are breathtaking from every angle and are truly some of the most spectacular on the Maine coast. The 3-bedroom farmhouse is filled with natural light and has lovely views from most rooms. The property includes a large post and beam barn and the remains of the original boathouse at water's edge. There is a thoughtful easement in place providing a development area where an additional home, also with incredible views, may be built. Operated as a saltwater farm for over a century, Point of Main's history is as astounding as its scenery. It is known as a place of peace and complete privacy. Take your morning coffee outdoors and allow the ocean breezes and birdsong to recharge you. Point of Main is accessible by road at low tide only and is accessed by boat during high tide. In nearby Machias, you will find grocery and hardware stores, restaurants, a small municipal airport and other amenities.
