About This Home
Own a piece of Maine's coastal charm--with multiple income and lifestyle opportunities. This meticulously renovated vintage farmhouse offers the character buyers love with the comfort and efficiency of a modern home. Set on six private acres with ocean views, it feels private and serene, yet is just five minutes from downtown Belfast--an ideal setting for both personal use and vacation rental appeal. Extensively updated throughout, the home lives like new construction while preserving its timeless New England style. Inside, three thoughtfully designed levels provide flexibility for everyday living and hosting. The main level features a beautifully curated kitchen with a marble-topped island, abundant storage, and a walk-in pantry with laundry. The dining area is highlighted by a statement chandelier. Multiple seating spaces--including a charming window seat--create inviting areas to gather and relax. Upstairs offers three spacious bedrooms and two full baths, including a primary suite with a soaking tub and a second bath with a tiled steam shower--amenities that enhance both comfort and rental desirability. A third-floor loft adds flexible space for a home office or additional guest area. Radiant heat on the first and second floors and a heat pump for cooling provide year-round comfort. Sold mostly furnished, this turnkey property is ready to continue as a successful vacation rental. In addition to generating strong rental income, this home has a proven history as a home exchange property, allowing owners to trade stays with other desirable homes across the U.S. and internationally. This gives owners the freedom to travel while their Maine retreat is occupied, providing both lifestyle flexibility and an additional layer of value from the property. With privacy, ocean views, modern systems, and multiple ways to enjoy or monetize the home, this property is an exceptional opportunity for income, lifestyle, and adventure.
