About This Home

As of March 2023

Imagine waking up to sunrise peaking over the horizon and reflecting on the water. At Beach Glass Cottage on South Lubec Road, you can enjoy that view every day. Well, somedays it may be overcast or the fog rolls in but the views are still spectacular!
Beach Glass Cottage offers views of Campobello Island and Grand Manan, Canada and open ocean.. The first floor is handicapped assessable with wide doors, step in shower, and more. French doors lead to the bedroom and adjacent handicapped bathroom. The Kitchen has plenty of cabinets for storage, stainless French Door refrigerator, wall oven and counter-top 6 burner stove top. When you enter the house, your eyes gravitate directly to the 18' x 18' living room with unobstructed views of the Atlantic Ocean and the Bay of Fundy. Three panel sliding patio doors open to a deck beyond. Grab your morning coffee or evening beverage and enjoy the sights, sounds and salty air of the mighty Atlantic and views over to the Sparkplug Light House. If you like running, this beach is great for that brisk morning run – you will find few others as you enjoy the salty air.
The second floor offers a wide landing, great for a little home office, large bedroom with commanding views over the waterfront and a 2nd full bath. The home is well appointed for comfort and ease of maintenance and is being sold Turn Key. The home and it's abutting, oversized two car garage with loft, both have a great history of seasonal rentals.
Known as First Light Loft , this cozy space is a great addition for supplemental income or overflow for family gatherings. Both the Beach Glass Cottage and the First Light Loft have their own steps to the sandy beach for beach combing, strolling and just relaxing. The loft offers two bedrooms, kitchen and living room with a small dining area overlooking the deck and waterfront. This is also being sold furnished.
Lubec is a traditional fishing village and is the easternmost town in the United State
