    Live in the heart of downtown Lubec - where the sun rises first - while enjoying spectacular water views and the flexibility of owning a property that offers both comfortable living and outstanding business potential. Originally constructed in the mid-1800s by Jeremiah Fowler, the former A.W. Kelley Drugs & Medicines is one of Lubec's historic buildings and has been completely restored. The private second-floor residence features two bedrooms, one full bath, hardwood floors, original tin ceilings, and abundant natural light. Nearly every room enjoys views of the Lubec Channel/Narrows, Campobello Island, Mulholland Lighthouse, and the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial Bridge. Step from the living room onto the expansive 278+/- sq. ft. deck to watch fishing boats, seabirds, wildlife, and the ever-changing tides. The first floor offers a separate 388+/- sq. ft. storefront or office with its own entrance, large display windows facing Water Street, original tin ceilings, open layout, kitchenette, full bath, basement access, and a spacious covered rear deck. Continue its legacy as a retail shop, professional office, gallery, studio, or service-based business, or explore the potential for additional residential living space. The separate entrances create an ideal opportunity to live upstairs while operating a business below or generating additional income. Located a stones throw from the waterfront, restaurants, shops, grocery store, library, seasonal farmers market, and public boat landing, and a shore drive to Cobscook Shores preserves, public beaches, kayaking, hiking trails, and to Lubec's iconic West Quoddy Head Lighthouse. Offering historic character, beautiful Lubec Channel views, and exceptional flexibility for both residential living and entrepreneurial pursuits, this unique property presents opportunity.
