Property Description
Newly refreshed with a vacant interior, updated photography, a brand-new 3D tour, and a significant price reduction to $199,000, 97 Court Street presents an exceptional opportunity in the heart of downtown Machias. Thoughtfully renovated in 2023, this versatile commercial property offers approximately 2,000 square feet of usable space and the flexibility to accommodate a wide range of business, retail, office, studio, or mixed-use concepts. Located on Court Street--one of Machias' primary thoroughfares--the property benefits from excellent visibility, steady traffic flow, and convenient access to downtown amenities. With the previous furniture inventory removed, buyers can now fully appreciate the space and envision how it could support their own business, investment, or creative venture. Character and functionality come together throughout the building, with exposed wood beams, warm pine flooring on the second level, and a flexible floor plan adaptable to a variety of commercial uses. A half bath is already in place, and existing plumbing provides potential for a future kitchen or breakroom buildout. Major improvements completed in 2023 include new electrical wiring, updated plumbing, vinyl replacement windows, and spray foam insulation. Portions of the exterior feature durable stained pine board-and-batten siding, adding both curb appeal and longevity. Outside, the 0.41-acre in-town lot offers on-site parking and a detached storage building with a metal roof, providing valuable additional space for inventory, equipment, workshop use, or general storage. Whether you're launching a new business, relocating an existing operation, or expanding your investment portfolio, this property offers flexibility, visibility, and long-term potential in a highly accessible downtown location. The existing food truck may also be available for purchase separately and could be negotiated as part of the transaction.
