Fantastic vistas for miles straight-up the Machias river can be enjoyed from this renovated, two-story, 3-bedroom home which has a rich history in Machias. The year built is not documented, however the property is known as the Marshfield Steele House; Marshfield Steele (1769-1831) was the 3rd leader of the Congregational and the longest serving of record, his Ordination was September 3, 1800. His burial marker is in the Liberty Pole cemetery across from the house on Court Street. It is believed that the original Liberty Pole that helped instigate the Battle of the Margaretta (1775) was placed in the vicinity of this location. While the built year is unknown, many generations have lived here and enjoyed its convenient location within the vicinity of the local shops, services, and eateries. This home is filled with light through out the day and almost every room faces the river. Recent, thoughtful renovations and updates make this home refreshing and blend the character of its past. There are time-worn, wide board floors and hand fashioned nails as well as modern plumbing, electrical, and internet access. The design allows for the home to function as one big 2.5 bath residence or to have a separate, private suite with its own efficient kitchen. The lot is easy to manage and the two exterior decks are ideal for entertaining and enjoying the elevated display of the river. From the walkout basement you can investigate the craftsmanship of the post and beam construction and the historic design of the central brick fireplace. From any time period this is a great home waiting for you.
