52 Water Street, Lubec, ME, 04652 | $259,000

Located in the picturesque village of Lubec, the easternmost town in the United States, this unique property offers both an 804 sq ft commercial space and a cozy 336 sq ft waterfront apartment, creating a rare opportunity to own a versatile building with both business and residential potential. The commercial space is currently home to the Breakwater Café, but it holds incredible potential for any number of ventures.
On the second floor, the charming owner's apartment features a well-designed layout with one bedroom, a full bath, and its own private deck—perfect for enjoying the stunning, unobstructed views of the bay, the Lubec Narrows, and the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial Bridge. The apartment provides a peaceful retreat, with ample natural light and breathtaking panoramas of the water, local wildlife, and boats navigating the bay.
The property is situated on Water Street, offering exceptional views and easy access to the beauty of the area. Imagine sipping your morning coffee while watching seals play, local fishermen set out for their day, or simply enjoying the ever-changing scene of the coastline.
Lubec itself is a haven for nature lovers, artists, and adventurers, with numerous parks and outdoor activities like hiking, kayaking, and wildlife watching. Cobscook Shores, with its trails and serene waters, is just a short distance away, while West Quoddy Head State Park and its iconic lighthouse are minutes from your doorstep.
This property presents the ideal blend of commercial potential and tranquil living, allowing for endless possibilities. Whether you're continuing the café's legacy or launching your own business, this location provides the perfect spot to thrive. After a day of exploration or work, retreat to your private apartment and soak in the peaceful views that make this location so special.
