A location that is both close to town, has town water and sewer, fiber optic internet service, visibility from Route 1, sidewalks so you can walk to all of the services of the downtown including award winning restaurants, a public boat launch, marinas, bookstores, a state of the art medical facility, art galleries and everything else that makes the towns of Newcastle and Damariscotta the destination of generations of visitors. Not only is there the large classic Greek Revival home that is waiting for your restoration ideas there is also a half acre field next door that has almost endless possibilities for development because of the town's forward thinking land use code designed to allow for creative mixes of commercial and residential purposes from residential to retail to health care to inns/B and Bs, to apartment buildings or condominiums, restaurants..the list goes on. There isn't a lot anywhere in the two towns this size with so many possibilities of what can be done with it. And as an added bonus there is even a small waterfront lot that gives you your own private access to the Damariscotta River. This property has it all, a classic home, a huge lot with zoning that encourages a range of business activities and waterfront, all in a downtown location. This is a great time to work from home, park the car and walk to town.
