Thoughtfully renovated in 2023, this distinctive commercial property offers modern infrastructure and flexible space in the heart of downtown Machias. Located on Court Street—one of the town's two main thoroughfares—97 Court Street provides exceptional visibility and steady traffic, making it an ideal setting for a retail storefront, studio, or professional office. The building features approximately 2,000 square feet of usable space, including a half bath, with exposed wood beams throughout and warm pine flooring on the second floor that add character and appeal. Plumbing is in place to support a future kitchen buildout, offering flexibility for a variety of business uses. Recent improvements include new electrical wiring, new plumbing, all new vinyl replacement windows, and spray foam insulation, helping minimize upfront capital improvements for a new owner. Portions of the exterior feature inch-thick stained pine board-and-batten siding, adding durability and curb appeal. A detached storage building with a metal roof adds valuable functionality. Situated on an in-town 0.41-acre lot with on-site parking, this property is well suited for an owner-operator or investor seeking visibility, convenience, and long-term potential. The existing food truck and furniture store businesses may be purchased separately, offering additional income or branding opportunities.
