Live the Down East dream at 24 Main Street, a storybook 1920 Cape Cod tucked into the heart of historic Lubec. This cheerful and move-in-ready home is full of charm, blending vintage character - like original sash windows - with sunny spaces and thoughtful updates. A semi-open layout lets light flow from the living room to the bright sunroom, where you can sip coffee in the morning glow. Step through the sliding glass door to a covered back porch with a new aluminum roof - perfect for al fresco dining or lazy summer afternoons. Outside, this rare oversized in-town lot is a hidden gem - fully fenced with mature trees, native perennials, and peek-a-boo views of the water, Canada, and the iconic FDR Bridge. A cedar picket fence (built in 2022 with locally sourced wood) adds a dash of Downeast charm and makes the perfect backdrop for privacy or furry friends to frolic. Inside, the kitchen offers plenty of workspace, modern cabinets, a gas stove, fridge, and dishwasher. Upstairs, two light-filled bedrooms face north, and a cozy third room gazes out over the garden - ideal for guests or creative space. The full bathroom features an updated vanity, with the convenience of an in-unit washer and dryer located on the same level as the bedrooms. All appliances convey, and the home is connected to town water and sewer. High-speed internet (1 Gbps) is readily available, making this an ideal spot for remote work or entertainment streaming This lovingly cared-for home has served as a seasonal escape and full-time haven - never a rental, but would be a great opportunity. Located just a short stroll to the Saturday farmers' market, shops, cafés, and the town boat launch. Outdoor adventures await in every direction, from West Quoddy Head to Cobscook Shores. Whether you're seeking a peaceful perch, a sweet little getaway, or a new adventure on the coast - this home is ready to welcome you.
Experience the small town charm of one of the country's easternmost Main Streets. This 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home is turnkey with a fireplace and many modern updates over the years, including new appliances, furnishings, new roof, refinished hardwood floors, a new deck, and sculpted gardens in the front and rear of the property. The downstairs features a glassed-in porch and a connected dining and living room with a large eat-in kitchen with sliding glass doors overlooking the deck and gardens and a tidy computer nook in the hallway. The second floor bedrooms are convenient to the bath/laundry room. Outside, a spacious deck allows views of a lush, landscaped lawn under an majestic oak tree offering privacy, shade, and a sweet breeze. This oasis sits two blocks uphill from historic Lubec's hopping Water Street with its shops, restaurants and galleries and also has a terrific little view of the Lubec Channel from the front yard. It is a rare find. Snag it and move right in before someone else does.
