Own a part of Islesboro history! Durkee's General Store has been an integral part of island life serving the community for 70+ years. Currently run as a grocery store, Durkee's General Store offers groceries, meats, a deli section, a selection of prepared foods, produce, household and automobile items, beer, wine, hard alcohol, cigarettes, and lottery. The third and current owner has run a successful business for 35+ years and is ready to pass the torch to the next owner to continue to operate as a grocery store or whatever else your imagination can dream up! The store includes a full kitchen, for take out or options for a cafe and options for a seating area inside or outback of the store on the lawn. The large basement under the store offers storage.
Included with the property is a house with a 3-bedroom 1-bath apartment with a large kitchen and living room that extends to a porch in the warmer months, all on the second floor. Plus a bonus room for an office, study or exercise room. Enjoy your coffee on the deck off the kitchen looking out over fields and forest. Below on the first floor is a two bay garage that historically was the home of the fire station. Keep them as a garage or convert them to more retail or living space. Next to the garage bays is what could be a 1 bedroom 1 bath apartment or the first floor/family room for the upstairs. The bathroom plumbing has been roughed in and partially completed. The two living spaces could be combined with a staircase or kept as separate units.
Set on a combined 17.3± acres, there is parking on 1± acres on the west side of the road, which also includes a fire pond. The store and house sit on 16± acres on the east side of the road, which is a mixture of field and forest. Stay connected with 1-gigabyte connection speed internet. Endless possibilities await the next owner!
Also listed as commercial, see mls: 1575437. International 4700 freight truck and store equipment included with sale.
