Property Description
Thoughtfully renovated in 2023, this distinctive commercial property offers modern infrastructure and flexible space in the heart of downtown Machias. Located on Court Street-one of the town's two main thoroughfares-97 Court Street provides exceptional visibility and steady traffic, making it an ideal setting for a retail storefront, studio, or professional office. The building features approximately 2,000 square feet of usable space, including a half bath, with exposed wood beams throughout and warm pine flooring on the second floor that add character and appeal. Plumbing is in place to support a future kitchen buildout, offering flexibility for a variety of business uses. Recent improvements include new electrical wiring, new plumbing, all new vinyl replacement windows, and spray foam insulation, helping minimize upfront capital improvements for a new owner. Portions of the exterior feature inch-thick stained pine board-and-batten siding, adding durability and curb appeal. A detached storage building with a metal roof adds valuable functionality. Situated on an in-town 0.41-acre lot with on-site parking, this property is well suited for an owner-operator or investor seeking visibility, convenience, and long-term potential. The existing food truck and furniture store businesses may be purchased separately, offering additional income or branding opportunities.
