Property Description
Built in 1892, this classic Four Square once served the neighborhood as a general store, with the owner's rooms above. That dual life still shows in the generous main floor: a grand front entry, rooms meant for gathering, and the easy hospitality of a place that has always welcomed people in. Today the bones remain historic. The living is current.
Nearly three acres slope gently to a sandy beach and 168 feet of ocean frontage on the Lubec Channel--Quoddy Narrows. At the water's edge sits a restored fishing cottage, a small retreat with a big job: children's camp, guest hideaway, studio, or the spot where the clambake fire is lit and the picnic tables stay out until the tide turns. Few Downeast properties give you both a substantial historic house and a true beach cottage of your own.
Recent work leans into the water. A sun-filled three-season room looks straight down the channel. A side patio opens the house to the lawn. An upper deck takes in the lighthouse, the Narrows, and Canada. Inside: a renovated kitchen, a high-efficiency wood stove for long coastal winters, and a second-floor bath finished in marble--soaking tub, walk-in shower, the kind of room that makes you linger after a day on the shore.
This is a year-round coastal house if you want it, a generational retreat if you need it, and a rare slice of Lubec's working-waterfront past either way. History in the walls. Sand at the bottom of the lawn. Light on the water every evening.
