Approximately 17,285 square foot historic property in Bath - Income and Redevelopment Potential.
Offered for the first time in over 25 years, this substantial Bath property presents a rare opportunity to reposition a landmark residence on a prominent 1.8 acre corner lot. With its generous scale and flexible configuration, the property offers a strong foundation for restoration or repurposing.
Originally constructed in the early 1800s by Captain Samuel Davis and later redesigned by architect Francis Fassett and expanded by a prominent shipbuilder, the building previously served as the Bath Military and Naval Children's Home and the Patten Free Library, before becoming a private residence.
The offering includes approximately 17,285 total square feet, with an approximately 12,000 square foot main house and a connected wing currently configured as income producing units. The property is deeded for bed and breakfast use and, subject to city approval, may support expanded residential redevelopment.
Features include an in-ground swimming pool, elevator, ample off-street parking and space for reimagined gardens. The property's historical significance, scale, and location offer a rare opportunity for the right buyer in one of Maine's most cherished coastal communities.
