Description

This in-town Machias cottage sits right on the corner of Elm and Eliot Streets, close enough to the river that you catch glimpses of the water as you come and go. Inside, the home surprises you with hardwood floors and great natural light — the kind that makes a small space feel warm, open, and inviting. With 576 square feet and two comfortable bedrooms, it's modest in scale but genuinely pleasant to live in. The .23-acre lot gives you just enough outdoor room for a garden, a fire pit, or simply...This in-town Machias cottage sits right on the corner of Elm and Eliot Streets, close enough to the river that you catch glimpses of the water as you come and go. Inside, the home surprises you with hardwood floors and great natural light — the kind that makes a small space feel warm, open, and inviting. With 576 square feet and two comfortable bedrooms, it's modest in scale but genuinely pleasant to live in. The .23-acre lot gives you just enough outdoor room for a garden, a fire pit, or simply a bit of breathing space in a walkable neighborhood. The property has been used as a rental and is ready to continue generating income for anyone looking to expand their portfolio. It also works well as a first home, a downsizing option, or a simple in-town base with quick access to grocery stores, the university, the Sunrise Trail, and the Machias waterfront. It's a bright little cottage with practical updates, a central location, and solid potential — whether you're thinking investment, small-scale living, or just a comfortable spot to land in the heart of town.
