About This Home

As of October 2025

This 1850's Colonial offers the best of both worlds: historic charm and thoughtful updates, all within the convenience of downtown Searsport. The former owner, a skilled woodworker, left a lasting mark with a beautifully crafted custom kitchen that blends warmth, function, and artistry. Throughout the home, wide-plank wood floors and period details preserve its timeless character. From the second and third floors, you'll enjoy lovely water views that serve as a daily reminder of the home's coastal setting. The third floor, with its open floor plan and expansive windows, would be ideal as a studio, creative workspace, or simply a sun-filled retreat. The basement has been waterproofed, ensuring dry, usable space for storage. Outdoors, an in-ground pool awaits your vision. While the area will benefit from some attention, it holds wonderful potential for a private sanctuary where you can relax, entertain, or transform the space into a backyard oasis right in the heart of town. Combining classic New England architecture, artisan details, and opportunities to make it your own, this property is a rare chance to own a piece of history close to local shops, dining, and waterfront activities.
