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.
