Property details

About 253 County Rd

Brimming with charm and character, this meticulously maintained 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home is nestled on 9.74± acres with rolling fields and views of Johnsons Bay. Built in 1955 - rumored to be the work of a skilled shipbuilder - this home is a testament to quality craftsmanship and timeless design. Step through the enclosed sunroom and into a warm and welcoming foyer. The spacious living room features gleaming hardwood floors, built-in shelves, and a cozy new pellet stove fireplace. Sunlight pours through large picture windows, framing postcard-worthy views of the surrounding landscape. The dining room opens to a cheerful kitchen with Corian and granite countertops, and French doors lead you to a back deck where golden hour truly shines. Off the kitchen, a second entry with a mudroom, a handy laundry room, and a full bath add convenience. A roomy first-floor bedroom completes the main level. Upstairs you'll find three charming bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a whimsical loft space - ideal for a reading nook, creative corner, or additional sleeping quarters. The full basement houses the mechanicals, a workshop, a brick fireplace, and even a retired hot tub, waiting to be reimagined. Outside, the property offers an attached two car garage & 4 additional outbuildings: one handsome barn with a new roof, and two others ready for your finishing touch. Restore the enclosed pool to its former glory or transform it into a dreamy greenhouse. With frontage on both County Road and North Lubec Road, this property offers endless possibilities - whether you're seeking a forever home, homestead, or mixed-use venture. Just 1.5 miles from the heart of downtown Lubec, yet a world away from the bustle, this is a place where sea breezes whisper & sunsets dazzle.
