Offered for sale at $950,000
Unique opportunity to own a Bed and Breakfast in Downeast Maine near the East Machias River!
The Talbot House Inn earns 5-star ratings on TripAdvisor and was awarded the 2024 Traveler's Choice Award. The three-story mansard roof Greek Revival home was built in 1874 and is on the National Register of Historic Places. It was designed by James A. Tenney and is his only remaining mansard house in eastern Maine.
On the grounds is a storage shed & a 589 square ft building currently used as an antique/gift shop.
Renovated four years prior to its opening as a Bed and Breakfast in July 2012, the owners preserved the original features: tin ceilings, marble fireplaces, maple floors, plaster medallions, crown molding, wood inlay floors, etc.
On the first floor you will find a large kitchen that will meet your personal and business needs. It has a center island, prep sink with dishwasher, quartz countertops, five burner gas stove, refrigerator, and storage galore. A huge three bay sink is located in the adjoining pantry. Other rooms on the first floor include: a bathroom, two dining rooms, a library, and a living room.
On the second floor you will find the laundry room and five spacious bedrooms each with large closets and ensuite bathrooms. Two sets of stairs and a separate entrance allow you or your patrons to come and go at their leisure.
The third floor, currently used as the owner's quarters, has two office spaces, a bedroom with a giant closet and a full bath across the hall. There is the potential here for the expansion of this space for additional guest accommodation.
Attached to the back of the main house is the section of the home originally built in 1771. Accessible from the first floor this two bedroom, two bath unit has it's own separate outside entrance.
Just minutes away from the spectacular views of the Bold Coast, Jasper Beach & steps away from the Downeast Sunrise Trail!
