About This Home

As of March 2025

In the heart of Bath's iconic and historic downtown, this 1890 New Englander is available to the market for the first time since 1961! Pearl is a quiet side street on the north end of Washington Ave, it is lined with archetypal turn of the century homes, full of character reminiscent of a time when building homes was truly a craft of the highest order! This unique offering is a chance to restore, renew, and give a new lease on life for this 134 year old diamond in the rough. 3-bedrooms, 2-full bathrooms at 1,818 square feet of well-appointed living space that includes a front parlor/ den, formal dining room, central kitchen and auxiliary space to the rear. Upstairs, three comfortable bedrooms offer ample natural light and storage, full bathroom and flex space/ back stairwell to the rear of the home. The power and heating systems are on, and a recently installed standby generator includes Seller owned LP tanks. The property is home to a variety of mature trees: nut-producing Pecan trees, a formidable Black walnut, two apple trees, and a flowering crabapple tree. Set on a 0.09-acre lot, this home places you steps away from Bath's vibrant downtown with boutique shops, local dining, and the picturesque Kennebec River. The neighborhood is known for its community feel, and proximity to Bath's parks and waterfront. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of history in one of Maine's most cherished coastal towns!
