About this property

3-bedroom House with River View in the Center of Town

Welcome to the Harbor Bend House, a freshly renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home perfectly situated in the heart of Machias, Maine. Blending modern finishes with coastal charm, this home offers water views, outdoor living spaces, and the convenience of being close to everything downtown — all wrapped in a warm, inviting setting.

Step inside and you’ll find a beautifully refinished interior that feels brand new. Exposed beams, soft lighting, and natural wood accents bring character and warmth to the main living area, while an open layout makes it easy to cook, dine, and relax together. The kitchen features new appliances, a modern layout, and all the essentials for your stay — whether you’re making a big breakfast before exploring or enjoying a quiet dinner with the family at home.

Upstairs, you’ll find two cozy bedrooms, each thoughtfully decorated with clean lines, fresh linens, and coastal touches. Downstairs you'll find a large bedroom with a king bed. Two full bathrooms have been completely updated and include bright lighting, coastal decorations, and new fixtures. You’ll also have the convenience of a full-size modern LG washer and dryer on-site.

The backyard and deck are where this property truly shines. Step out to a spacious private deck with rope-rail detailing, outdoor dining for six, and ambient lighting for evening meals or a glass of wine under the stars. A few steps away, Adirondack chairs sit overlooking the river — a favorite spot for morning coffee, seal viewing in the bay, or evening conversation.

The home sits along two local roads, providing easy access and is a stone's throw to the river and a short walk to downtown. Similar in setting to the Machias River Inn, you may notice some passing traffic at times. You’ll be in the heart of Machias, surrounded by coastal charm and history. Walk to Helen’s Restaurant, local shops, and the Machias River Trail. Just a short drive takes you to Roque Bluffs State Park, Jasper Beach, and the dramatic Bold Coast Trail — some of Maine’s most stunning natural landscapes. Still close but a bit farther drive is the grandeur of Acadia National Park.

Amenities:
3 Bedrooms / 2 Bathrooms
Private deck with dining and ambient lighting
River/bay views from the backyard
Fully equipped modern kitchen
High-speed WiFi and Smart TV's in each bedroom and the living room
LG washer and dryer
Parking for up to four cars on site.
Central location – walk to the river, town, and waterfront

This home is clean, comfortable, and convenient — the perfect mix of modern amenities and small-town Maine authenticity. Whether you’re here for hiking, kayaking, business, or simply to experience Downeast life, the Harbor Bend House offers a welcoming home base for your stay.

The house in a great spot close to everything, walking distance to restaurants. It has most anything you need, well thought out. Plenty of parking. We ride ATVs, the town is very friendly towards them! ATV trail access close by. We even had deer visit us in the back yard! The host was extremely quick at responding to all my questions!

Lovely and convenient place to stay. The kitchen was outfitted with everything you could ask for, nice appliances and room to work. This cottage is artfully decorated. Having CENTRAL air conditioning was such a treat! Spotlessly clean with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, fluffy towels and lots of little extras that made it a most welcoming place. We fumbled a bit with the door lock but solved in a second with a call to the host (it was our bad!) Will definately make it our go to place when we travel Downeast.

The house was perfect to spend a week with our daughter on her week off. The kitchen had everything we needed and the beds were comfy. We were able to walk around Machias, drive to Lubec and Bangor without feeling like we had to rush anywhere. The local beaches were rocky and excellent for walking and catching glimpses of seals. Definitely worth going back to.

Great property with all the amenities one could need. Very clean and easy check in. Friendly, prompt, and helpful communications with our host before, during and after the trip. Pet friendly and had thought of everything a pet owner or pet may need. Lovely decor and updated appliances. Be aware the road traffic outside can be heard in the morning if you are a light sleeper. Private backyard with deck and outdoor furniture was nice. Walking distance to a few local eating establishments. Would highly recommend for those visiting the area!
