Coastal Maine Bed & Breakfast For Sale

If the lure of mid-coast Maine, spectacular ocean views, and a long and historical reputation for fine lodging is an attractive proposition, then 1794 Watchtide…by the Sea! is for you. The Inn, located in Searsport, is offered for sale today at $669,000.

Currently operated as a five room bed and breakfast, 1794 Watchtide…by the Sea! provides a wonderful lifestyle opportunity for experienced innkeepers or aspiring innkeepers alike. All five rooms feature en-suite bathrooms, guest refrigerators, cable TV and WiFi. Owner’s quarters are comfortable and easily expandable to a larger configuration if so desired. Guest room expansion possibilities exist because of recent zoning in Searsport and after several months of closure for renovations and a complete refurbishment of all guest rooms in 2006, the Inn is again ramping up its revenue stream and is poised for significant growth in 2008 and beyond.

This award-winning bed and breakfast sits on nearly four landscaped acres between convenient US Route 1 and overlooks the Atlantic Ocean. The Inn is less than an hour’s drive from other sites of interest: Rockland, Camden, Bangor, Deer Isle, Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. This perfect location from which to see everything from Pemaquid Point to the breathtaking new Penobscot Narrows Bridge to Schoodic Point in easy day trips adds to the Inn’s desirability.

As the website states, “Nestled on a knoll overlooking Penobscot Bay, 1794 Watchtide…by the Sea! offers some of the finest accommodations in coastal Maine ~ beautifully redecorated guest rooms with private baths, tasteful furnishings and accessories, and the sense of the past that only a 200-year-old home can convey.”

If 1794 Watchtide…by the Sea! sounds appealing…it is. For more details about the opportunity to own your slice of coastal Maine and a living piece of Maine hospitality history, please contact.

North Carolina Inn For Sale Takes You Back In Time

In the mountains west of Asheville, North Carolina outside the quaint town of Bryson City sits this beautiful 10 guest room bed and breakfast for sale. With a feeling that evokes times past and amenities that speak to today’s comfort, this inn is just a quarter mile from an entrance to Great Smoky Mountains National Park with hiking, tubing, and more.
The great outdoors is the draw to this rural area. The Nantahala Outdoor Center is just ten miles away. Other major attractions are the Cherokee Indian reservation with its state of the art recreational facilities, and the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad with its scenic historic train rides. Bryson City, a small town nestled in the valley on the banks of a small river that feeds into Fontana Lake, has dining and shopping that entertain and please.
The Smoky Mountain Inn sits on two and a half acres of land with wonderful views of the mountains and surrounding countryside. The ten guest rooms all have private baths and range in price from under $100.00 to almost $160.00 a night affording a range of options for travelers who come to the area. There are spacious common areas as well as seating in each room. A game room and large front porch as well as private balconies or decks for many guest rooms add to the appeal. The dining room is surrounded by large windows and is served from an efficient commercial kitchen with equipment mostly less than five years old.
Of particular note, the innkeeper’s quarters have a spacious modern kitchen with maple cabinets and stainless steel appliances, a comfortable living room with bay window, a bedroom with large bathroom, and giant walk-in closet. An upstairs attic room with bath adds a second office or space as an extra bedroom for family and friends. In short, there is ample space to retreat, be private and comfortable while having easy access to the business side of the inn.
With a solid and growing business history, the Smoky Mountain Inn is offered for $1,100,000.
