Estimated Value: $241,000 - $392,776
125 FEET OF DIRECT WATERFRONT, on Machias Bay in Bucks Harbor, with the Atlantic Ocean just beyond. YEAR-ROUND OR SEASONAL RETREAT for you, or use as a profitable rental for guests. Described by visitors as ''The happiest little cottage on the coast of Maine'', and ''Enjoying a cup of coffee while looking out over the working harbor as the fog rolls in and out of the cove is simply one of the best ways to start the day.'' These are just a few of the dozens of complementary reviews from this SOUGHT AFTER vacation rental in Bucks Harbor. This light and bright cottage is a wonderful and very desirable rental, but would also be an excellent, low-maintenance, energy efficient seasonal or year-round home for an owner occupant. The property includes a 900sf MAIN COTTAGE (''The Frisky Fish''), and a 300sf+/- SEASONAL GUEST HOUSE/BUNKHOUSE (''Camp From-Away''), complete with woodstove. The cottage is offered mostly turnkey (with some exclusions), so rentals can continue seamlessly. There is tasteful, new décor, custom window coverings (2019), a security system, and Ring floodlight camera. Buyer to honor existing rentals. Purchase the house now and have much of the first year expenses paid for effortlessly. Contents of basement and guest house NOT included. Seller is a licensed Maine real estate agent.
