Built in 1870, this inviting village home has retained much of the character and charm that make older homes so appealing while benefiting from thoughtful updates over the years. While not a museum piece for the strict preservationist, the home offers a wonderful balance of historic character and everyday livability. Containing approximately 2,200 square feet, the home features five bedrooms, one bathroom, spacious living areas, and the high ceilings often associated with homes of its era. A formal front entrance facing Jacksonville Road provides a welcoming introduction to the home's timeless character. The grounds are a special feature of the property. Over the years, the seller has devoted considerable effort to creating a landscape rich with flowers, shrubs, hedges, and ornamental plantings. Rather than formal gardens, the setting offers a natural beauty that changes throughout the seasons and creates a peaceful backdrop for daily life. Adding to the property's appeal, the rear boundary abuts the Sunrise Trail, providing direct access to one of Downeast Maine's most popular recreational corridors. Whether you enjoy walking, biking, ATV riding, snowmobiling, or simply exploring the outdoors, the trail offers year-round opportunities for recreation right from your backyard. Conveniently located in the village of East Machias, the property is just minutes from shopping, restaurants, schools, medical services, and the many recreational opportunities found throughout the Machias Bay region. Nearby beaches, hiking trails, rivers, and public access to the coast make this an ideal location for those seeking both convenience and connection to the natural beauty of Downeast Maine. If you appreciate older homes with character, welcoming spaces, and a setting shaped by years of thoughtful care, this East Machias property is well worth a closer look.
