    Overview

    Boothbay Harbor Commercial Opportunity

    Located in downtown Boothbay Harbor, this property offers ocean and harbor views from multiple vantage points, on-site parking, and high foot and vehicle traffic. The classic New Englander building, approximately 2,900 square feet, is currently configured for lodging. The former street-level retail/antique space has been converted into a fifth short-term rental. A detached Carriage House adds approximately 1,000 square feet with 2 bedrooms and 1 bath, bringing the total square footage across both buildings to approximately 4,400. In 2025, three of the five VRBO-style guest spaces were operated as short-term rentals, generating approximately $70,000 in rental income. Substantial improvements since the 2022 purchase position this as a flexible live-work or investment opportunity, suitable for owner-occupied lodging, boutique hospitality, or an expanded short-term rental portfolio. The property is located steps from shops and dining, offering year-round harbor living with water views, versatile layouts, and valuable in-town parking. The lot size is 0.23 acres. The property is zoned Downtown Business A.

    Realmo Value Estimation

    Realmo estimates a property’s market value using a proprietary methodology that incorporates public data and user-submitted information. This cumulative value is generated by integrating a variety of conventional and innovative methods. 

    Disclaimer

    These figures are not official appraisals and should not be used as a substitute for a valuation performed by a licensed appraiser.

    Actual market value may differ due to factors not captured in the data. Estimates are offered for informational purposes only, and users should conduct independent research before making financial or investment decisions.

    By using this feature, you acknowledge that Realmo is not responsible for actions taken based on these estimates.

    AI approach

    Realmo AI Method estimates property value using machine learning models trained on millions of comparable listings, transactions, and market signals. It analyzes property features, location intelligence data, and current market dynamics to predict the most probable market value in real time.

    Cap approach

    Capitalization Method calculates value based on estimated net operating income (NOI) and applying a market-based capitalization rate (cap rate), we estimate what a typical investor might be willing to pay for it.

    Comparable approach

    Comparable estimate is based on recent sales of similar nearby properties, adjusted for factors like size, condition, and location.

    Relative

    Relative property class coefficient uses factors that account for typical price differences between various asset types (e.g., retail vs. industrial) to provide a more accurate market-aligned estimate.

    Geo

    Comparable Sales Method, enhanced by Geo coefficients — location-based adjustment factors that reflect differences in price levels across neighborhoods, cities, or regions ensuring a more accurate, market-sensitive valuation.

    Alternative use

    Estimate considers the property’s potential value if used for a different purpose-based on zoning, demand, and market feasibility.
