Description

Assumable Mortgage + Prime Duplex in the Heart of Downtown Rockland A rare advantage for buyers planning to live on-site: this property comes with an assumable 2.25%(!) mortgage, available exclusively to qualified owner-occupants (not investors). By taking over the seller's existing low-rate loan, you could finance about half your total mortgage at a remarkably low rate and save hundreds each month. Paired with the ability to live in one unit and rent the other, 17 Grove Street offers a uniquely smart and income-friendly path to homeownership. 17 Grove Street is a beautifully renovated duplex tucked on one of Rockland's loveliest streets—an ideal, fully walkable location steps from Main Street, the library, the waterfront, beaches, shops, and restaurants. It's the kind of place where you or your tenants can enjoy everything Rockland offers without ever needing to get in the car. Originally a single-family colonial, the home's thoughtful transformation into two units preserved the charm that makes older homes special: high ceilings, pocket doors, hardwood floors, ornate moldings, and oversized windows. These historic details are complemented by modern updates to kitchens and bathrooms, creating spaces that are warm, functional, and genuinely inviting. The front unit spans three levels and features 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a light-filled third-floor bonus room offering endless possibilities—studio, office, playroom, or retreat. The rear unit includes 2 bedrooms and 1 full bathroom, perfect for rental income or extended-stay guests. Each unit has its own private entrance, and the property includes off-street parking for convenience. This is truly a turnkey duplex ideal for house-hunters, investors, or anyone seeking a character-filled home in the arts capital of Maine.
