It's been said if you are lucky enough to live in Maine, you are lucky enough; we'd like to go one step further adding, if you are lucky enough to live in the South End of Rockland, you've got it made. Add to that incredible stroke of fortune a property checking pretty much every box you can think of. The 'South End Sisters' is an iconic duplex in Rockland's only walkable, waterfront neighborhood. These separately deeded houses are independent units that happen to share a wall - oh, and absolutely stunning views from virtually every window of Rockland Harbor, Penobscot Bay, and Owls Head. Their Mechanic Street location is enviable and these two properties have been loved and cherished, each has its own character, charm and both maintaining a timeless Maine facade. 50 Mechanic sits on .28 manicured acres; it has an attached 2 car garage and a paved dedicated driveway. This side of the property has flexibility of space; there is a beautiful 2 bedroom, 2 bath renovated unit with a sunporch (wait until you see the original etched glass at the door). There is also a studio apartment and a space on the 2nd/3rd floors to potentially expand an existing unit or become its own unit subject to City approval. 52's lot is .27 acres and has lovely gardens, green space and a dedicated paved driveway. This side has a water facing open porch (with to-die-for original scroll work) and 2 units. The 1 bedroom unit has a separate entrance, deck and views that don't end. The main unit, which is currently occupied by the owner of the entire property, is a lovely, graceful renovated space with 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and room for interior expansion. The South End has it all; parks, boat launches, sandy beaches, a boardwalk leading to Rockland's dynamic Main Street, coffee shops, ice cream stands, restaurants and front row seats to regattas in the harbor. The potential here is boundless; for a lifestyle, for an investment, for a chance to live in one of Maine's most wonderful places.
