Nothing to do but move right in to this 2007 Mini Home by Maple Leaf. Sited on half an acre with large views! This "house of light" as the owner calls it, offers panoramic views of Little Bay and enjoys a right of way to it along the Cottage Lane. Outside, the lot is dotted with a few perennial gardens, small deck facing the water and has recently had new insulated skirting around the base. Inside the large windows face the bay views and captures the morning and early evening sun creating passive solar heat. When the sun is out, no need to turn on the furnace! The mini home is economical to heat and with an average of $54/mo for electricity and an average of 200 gal/yr. for heat, one cannot go wrong! The great room offers large windows facing the water view and encompasses the living room, dining room and kitchen. There is a small laundry room, full bath and one bedroom with skylight. Enjoy moonlit strolls on the sandy waterfront, beach combing or just launch your kayak and explore the cove and bay.  Located on the "East side of the Port", this section of Machiasport is located on the east side of the bay that separates it from the rest of the town. You truly can't get there from here without leaving town and driving thru East Machias and around to Machiasport village where the town office, post office and fire department are located. On this side of the river you will find Machiasport village, the settlements of Larrabee, Starboard and Bucks Harbor - each with their own history but very much a part of Machiasport. The home is just minutes to East Machias and Machias where you are not far from services. Nearby Machias is home to the University of Maine at Machias, the County Courthouse and Registry of Deeds, the Sheriff's office and grocery store, pharmacies, restaurants and stores. A few short miles from this home is access to the Downeast Sunrise Trails. This 85-mile trail was built along a former rail corridor from Washington Junction in Hancock to Ayers Junction in Pembroke. It is a multi- use, 4 season trail suitable for hiking, biking, horseback riding, ATV's in the warmer months and cross country skiing and snowmobiling in the winter months. Known as the Sunrise County, Washington County welcomes the first rays of sun to shine on the US each day. With tides averaging between 18-22'; the bold, salt-sprayed shoreline of Downeast Maine offers deserted beaches, quiet hiking trails, rugged cliffs and unnamed beauty. Truly, one of the last frontiers on the Eastern seaboard, one doesn't have to go far to enjoy the natural beauty of the area. With 2 cities, 44 towns and a population of approximately 32,000. Washington County is larger than the states of Delaware and Rhode Island combined and offers access to thousands of acres of public preserved lands. A great place to explore for a season or a lifetime!
