About This Home

Imagine waking up to views of the West Branch of Little Kennebec Bay. Privately situated on 2 acres with 364 feet of owned waterfront, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath Cape overlooks a quiet, protected cove ideal for kayaking and enjoying coastal Maine.

Water views take center stage, with every main living and sleeping area overlooking the cove. The spacious kitchen and dining area provide a beautiful setting for meals, while the inviting family room features a wood stove. Step onto the wraparound deck for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or a front-row seat to the changing tides and evening sunsets.

The first-floor primary bedroom features a cathedral ceiling, while two additional generously sized bedrooms provide plenty of space for family, guests, or a home office. A walk-in pantry offers valuable kitchen storage. The attached two-car garage connects to a convenient mudroom, providing a practical entrance and a place for coats, boots, and outdoor gear. A full loft above the garage offers additional storage or workshop space.

The bright, white-painted daylight basement provides even more usable space. Additional highlights include a paved driveway, a new roof in 2024, 200-amp electrical service, a recently serviced heating system, and a generator that conveys with the property.

Enjoy waterfront privacy just minutes from downtown Machias and its shopping, dining, medical services, public beach, golf course, and other amenities. A special opportunity to experience coastal Maine living without sacrificing everyday convenience.
