This waterfront home in Brooklin offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Maine's history. Originally, the front part of the house was a dance hall on Long Island. Then, it was floated across Blue Hill Bay and converted into a boatyard. It was completely renovated and rebuilt in 1980, with an addition in 1987. The front family room, perched on piers, provides stunning views of Blue Hill Bay. The house has a large deck off the side and front, perfect for storing small boats or outdoor summer dinners. Situated on 2 acres of land, the property was designed by a Blue Hill architect and features 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. The primary bedroom, with a full bath, is conveniently located on the first floor. The home includes three wood stoves and a detached 3-car garage with a small seasonal apartment above. Please note that this property requires major repairs and is being sold as is. This home is ideal for those looking to restore and personalize a unique piece of Maine's coastline.
