Head of the Tide is a classic waterfront property in Belfast with 19.7± acres and approximately 970± feet of shorefront located at the mouth of the Passagassawakeag River, with ever-changing views of the tidal river. The historic sea captain's home features many original period details that contribute to its charming character such as wood paneled walls and floors, brick accents, and interesting built-in cabinets and shelves. The main house has three bedrooms and two baths, and a newly built deck overlooks the river. Comfortable living spaces include a farmhouse-style kitchen with large windows, a spacious dining area, and a cozy nook with a built-in window seat. There is an attached barn with workshop space and a one-bedroom apartment above it, complete with a separate entrance, a deck, and a loft. Private and conveniently located just minutes to the shops and dining in downtown Belfast, the landscape consists of mature perennial gardens interspersed with areas of lawn and fields and a lovely spring-fed pond. The river features dramatic 14-foot tidal swings and it attracts a variety of wildlife including Bald Eagles and seals. A portion of the property is subject to a conservation easement held by Coastal Mountains Land Trust.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
