About This Home

As of October 2018

Own a unique piece of Bath history while enjoying beautiful year-round views of the Kennebec River and Doubling Point Lighthouse. Back when small corner groceries served their neighborhoods, Moses Black operated his store out of this 1860's cottage-style house. Completely renovated, but retaining the charm of its origins. Improvements include new kitchen, baths, fixtures, siding, roof, propane boiler, interior paint and refinished floors. Spacious and sun-filled kitchen opens to dining and living room. A fenced back yard offers privacy and the opportunity for beautiful gardens with some mature landscaping in place. A short walk to the Maine Maritime Museum and nearby waterfront parks.
