Settle in an area known for breathtaking vistas, fascinating wildlife, and recreational galore in all seasons. Quiet harbors are dotted with working boats and pleasure craft. Local beaches feature powdery sand – and one beach is composed entirely of smooth, colorful stones that clatter musically in the surf. Browse enchanting antique shops and art galleries, and visit local restaurants serving pizza, the freshest seafood and much more. The “Blueberry Capital of the World,” Machias hosts an annual festival each summer when the streets of downtown come alive with delicious foods, art, crafts, and entertainment for the whole family.

Machias is one of the safest small towns in New England. Housing options include ocean-view homes and lakefront properties, historic farms with abundant acreage, and all manner of in-town homes. If you dream of country living, you can find it here.

Nearby Bangor is home to an international airport, shopping malls and theaters, museums, a casino/hotel, riverfront music and art festivals, and more.
