1033 Boot Cove Rd Lubec, ME 04652

Build your dream home in Downeast Maine with stunning views overlooking the serene and storied cove known as Bailey's Mistake. The shoreland across Boot Cove Road is protected conservation land, ensuring your ocean views will remain unobstructed for generations. This parcel once held a home that has since been removed, but the well and septic remain, offering a head start for future building. Bailey's Mistake is rich in coastal lore. Local legend tells of a schooner captain named Bailey who ran aground here in the 1800s, giving the cove its memorable name. Today, the area embraces the best of Downeast living: peaceful waterfront scenery, working lobster boats, and breathtaking sunrises over the Atlantic. Enjoy nearby amenities such as Western Head Trails, Quoddy Head State Park, Great Wass Island Preserve, and the charming village of Lubec with its shops, cafés, and the iconic West Quoddy Head Lighthouse. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the birdwatching, kayaking, beachcombing, and endless opportunities to explore preserved coastline. This is your chance to create a coastal retreat in one of Maine's most picturesque and historically rich regions.
