Set along the picturesque Chandler River, this 6.29-acre property boasts approximately 1,300 feet of tidal saltwater frontage with direct access to the open ocean. The gently rolling landscape stretches from Old US Route 1 down to the river's edge, featuring a small freshwater stream that meanders through the property—an ideal setting for those seeking peace, privacy, and a connection to nature. The riverfront location invites endless opportunities for kayaking, boating, and wildlife watching.
The centerpiece of this property is a classic 1890s farmhouse, brimming with history and potential. While it requires renovation, the home provides a foundation for creating a coastal retreat that blends timeless charm with modern comforts.
Located just ten minutes from the vibrant town of Machias, this property offers convenient access to local services, a university, a hospital, and cultural amenities. For those with a spirit of adventure, it's an hour from Canada's attractions and only an hour and a half from Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, making it a perfect base for exploring Downeast Maine's pristine coastline.
Whether you're envisioning a summer getaway, year-round home, or a renovation project with character, this property offers a unique opportunity to experience the natural beauty and charm of Maine's coastal region.
