Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This waterfront land parcel sits on the shore of Belfast Bay at the eastern end of Belfast’s iconic footbridge. The property includes an existing horseshoe driveway and a cleared building area, with an old boathouse along the shoreline. A foundation and basement remain on site and would likely be incorporated during preparation for new construction. Architectural plans for an approximately 8,000-square-foot home and garage, designed for the site, are available with a full-price offer. The boathouse is located within the flood zone, and any renovation, replacement, or removal would require appropriate approvals.

The parcel is located within the Searsport Avenue waterfront district and provides an easy, scenic walk into downtown Belfast. From the site, views stretch down Belfast Bay and up the Passagassawakeag River, with open sky and the movement of the working waterfront.

This property is suited to buyers looking to build a private waterfront residence, with the option to consider a live-work concept or other selected commercial possibilities, subject to approvals. For investors or developers, the site’s already-prepared driveway and cleared area can streamline initial site planning, while the available home and garage plans provide a starting point for design aligned with the property’s waterfront focus.

Key Highlights

  • Waterfront parcel on Belfast Bay at the eastern end of Belfast’s iconic footbridge, with direct water access.
  • Just under 1 acre with a horseshoe driveway and a cleared building area already in place.
  • Architectural plans available for an approximately 8,000 SF home and garage designed for the site (with a full‑price offer).
