Built in 1928 and standing tall in the heart of Machias, this three-story building is a piece of Downeast history. Known locally as the old 5 & 10, the property has worn many hats over the past century—retail shops, doctors' offices, a bakery, a funeral parlor—and continues to evolve with the times. The first floor, with its own street-level entrance at 3 Water Street, is a large open space currently configured as a tech workshop. It's divided by temporary walls and cubicles, offering flexibility without permanent fixtures. The second floor, accessible from street level at 6 Colonial Way, is split into two units separated by a shared foyer. One side houses professional office space; the other is a craftsman's studio. Both floors are currently rented, generating immediate income. The top floor is where the opportunity really opens up. Down to studs and upgraded with new electrical, this sun-filled third story is a blank slate ready for apartments, studios, or additional office space. It has its own private entrance on Colonial Way and captures great light throughout the day. With original architectural details largely intact and its appearance remarkably unchanged from old photographs, this building is a rare blend of historical charm and functional, flexible space. Whether you're an investor looking for steady rental income or a developer with an eye for adding value, this Machias landmark is ready for its next era.

Elegant 1860 Greek Revival within walking distance of historic downtown Machias, municipal buildings & county court house. While this stunning renovation incorporates everything today's family might want, the shining star is the large professional office space with private entrances (garage and side). The expansive in-town lot affords a circular driveway with ample space for additional parking on both northern and southern sides of the home with access directly from the street. Contrary to most homes of this era, this home features a water-tight bsmt, 2-car garage w/direct entry & more than 2500 sf of attic space. The home has been extensively renovated. The goal was to retain as much of the original design as possible (especially the 9 ft. ceilings in the main home) while creating guest bdrms, a guest bath w/laundry, & a luxurious 2nd level master suite [media room & master bdrm (surround-sound/HD TVs), en-suite, dressing room, breakfast bar & private stairway]. Versatility is exemplified with incorporation of a modern executive office (private entrance + direct garage entrance) equipped w/state-of-the-art communications. This features a private stairway to the 2nd level which can add addn'l office space as needed. The welcoming kitchen/informal dining space has been thoughtfully re-designed w/custom butcher block counter tops, dedicated service areas/built-ins, walk-in pantry, new appliances, & side deck. New 1st level guest bdrm & remodeled bath. 2nd level features: 3 bdrms in addition to the afore-mentioned master suite. The home is equipped w/dimmable LED lighting, audio speakers, CAT-6 Ethernet, Cable TV cabling, WiFi Access Points & security system. The most eloquent renovation effort was the main staircase in the front entry. Elements needed were fabricated to create a magnificent entryway presentation. AMAZING FOR OFFICE/HOME, TRENDY B&B, CORPORATE RETREAT, FAMILY COMPOUND.
