About This Home

As of October 2023

Step inside this gorgeous seaside home, and you will fall in love!
This historic, newly refurbished Victorian home features stunning, unobstructed water views and 200 feet of rugged shoreline overlooking Johnson's Bay, the town of Lubec, Campobello Island, and beyond!
Upon entering the home, you are immediately astonished by the dining area with an abundance of windows and an island equipped with a built-in stove to prepare meals with spectacular views, while entertaining or relaxing with friends and family.
The kitchen, spacious living room, and recently added full bath, complete the first floor.
The second floor includes three bedrooms and a fully renovated bathroom with walk-in shower.
This beautifully landscaped property includes several perennial gardens, an apple tree, plus an outbuilding to store your kayaks, canoes and more.
Spend your days on the nearby hiking and biking trails or visiting a few of the iconic lighthouses.
From your backdoor, grab a kayak or canoe to explore the nearby islands. Relax on the lawn watching the changing tides, eagles, kingfisher, and robins, or catch a glimpse of the seals frolicking offshore.
Enjoy a spectacular Maine coast sunrise as Lubec is the easternmost town in the continental United States.
This historic home is featured in the book ''The Great Gold Swindle of Lubec, Maine'', by Carrie C. Bangs, Edited by Ronald Pesha.
A dream home on the water's edge!
