Property Description

Two houses. Motivated seller! Tucked away on a quiet dead-end road in downtown Bar Harbor, this cozy 1885 home offers character, convenience, and exciting potential. The main home features two comfortable bedrooms, making it ideal for a small residence, vacation getaway, or work-from-home retreat. Inside, you'll find warm pine tongue-and-groove throughout much of the home, creating a classic Maine cottage feel. Laminate and carpeted floors add comfort, while the overall space maintains a relaxed charm. Metal roof. The property also includes a second 480-square-foot house that was once occupied. While it now requires a full renovation, it retains beautiful hardwood floors and original trim that could be restored or repurposed, offering excellent potential for a guest space, studio, or rental income. Two houses for the price of one! Located just steps from Bar Harbor's vibrant downtown, you'll enjoy easy access to local shops, restaurants, and waterfront attractions. Plus, Acadia National Park is right nearby, making this a perfect base for exploring one of Maine's most beloved destinations. A unique opportunity to own a piece of Bar Harbor history with room to create something special.
