About This Home

As of February 2021

Welcome home to 17 Cedar Street. Quite possibly one of the loveliest neighborhoods in the Midcoast region of Maine. Apart of Belfast Historic District which is recognized by the National Register of Historic Places.
The house is known as the George L. Knight house, 1875. Situated at the entrance to the residential section of the downtown seaside community and is an ideal location for those of us that thrive off the connection to our downtown way of life. A few blocks away are the bakeries, coffee shops, the local grocer, organic food stores, our famous Co-Op and restaurants of all kinds. Need the USPS? Only one block down the hill. Bank across the way, oldest shoe store in America, and another block down the hill the waterfront - the entrance to some of the best cruising grounds in the world, Penobscot Bay. Built over 100 years ago this 4-bedroom home has been lovingly maintained and kept up with the times, fresh paint, no wallpaper, upgraded chef's kitchen with granite counters, Viking range and commercial style hood will have you experimenting with all the Maine local produce from our farmers throughout Waldo County. Belfast has two farmers markets each week and also has delivery services for you to stay safe at home. Staying in for a while? Relax next to the gas fireplace in the living room off the kitchen - or stretch out in the expansive dining room enjoying the morning light. Take a bath in the clawfoot tub (make sure to connect with a local floral business to get the full experience of local herbs that help with relaxation) The laundry is both upstairs and, in the basement, to make life a little easier. The 3-car garage has been fully permitted to develop into an apartment on the upper level. Full renderings and plans for this are available and would certainly make the spacious home even more accommodating for friends or family, or a studio space/home office for those who have shifted to working from home. High speed internet is available if you WFH.
