Working lobster wharf, seasonal restaurant, and income real estate offered together under one ownership. The 300-seat restaurant spans two levels: indoor dining and an open-air harborside deck above; covered open-air bar, lobster room, additional seating, and the Hardy Boat Cruises ticket booth below, with live music weekly in season. Hardy Boat Cruises leases dock space for Monhegan ferry service and puffin and seal excursions, providing lease income and steady visitor traffic. Also included: a small home on its own lot adjacent to the wharf; a lot across the street used for employee overflow parking; and a lot with two mobile homes used for employee housing, with parking leased to Hardy Boat Cruises. Restaurant, wharf, housing, and parking convey together — a turnkey hospitality business, a working commercial waterfront, and the staff housing coastal Maine operators can rarely find. A once-in-a-generation offering in New Harbor/Bristol.
