Overview

This historic Bath property, situated on a prominent 1.8-acre corner lot, offers income and redevelopment potential. Originally built in the early 1800s and later redesigned by architect Francis Fassett, the property has a rich history, having served as the Bath Military and Naval Orphanage, the Bath Children's Home, the Patten Free Library, and most recently, a private residence. The property includes approximately 17,285 square feet, featuring a main house of approximately 12,000 square feet along with a connected wing that currently includes income-producing units. The main house layout is configured to easily add two more apartments, subject to city approval. Protective covenants permit potential future development of up to 13 dwelling units within the existing structure with the option to add one additional dwelling unit on the property, bringing the total to 14. They also allow for bed and breakfast use of the property. Additional features include an in-ground swimming pool, elevator, ample off-street parking, and space to reimagine the grounds and gardens. This property represents a rare opportunity in one of Maine's most desirable coastal communities.
