About this home
Live on the Kennebec River, steps from everything downtown Hallowell has to offer. All this with rental income to help pay the mortgage. This two-unit property combines water frontage, in-town convenience, and strong rental income. Both units have been remodeled, the first floor was completely redone in 2024 and the exterior has just been painted. Each unit has new appliances, new flooring, new kitchen cabinets and new electrical. The one-bedroom, first floor, unit features hardwood flooring and a private deck overlooking the river, and it can come fully furnished. The second unit is a two-story, four-bedroom, two-bath with hardwood floors on the first floor, beautifully remodeled bathrooms, and a washer and dryer included. A boat launch nearby gives you easy river access, and downtown shops and restaurants are within walking distance from your front door. The property is located in the Downtown district, which allows for business use and opens the door to live-work arrangements, office space, or a storefront (confirm exact use with CEO). Whether you're an investor looking for steady and profitable rental income or an owner-occupant who wants to live on the river and let the other unit help pay the mortgage, this is a rare find in downtown Hallowell.
KENNEBEC RIVER WATERFRONT!! Nice duplex located in-town Hallowell that has a good rental income history. Currently used as a duplex with a large 4-5 bedroom unit that consists of rooms on the first level and second level and also a single bedroom unit in the back of the building. This could be a great owner occupied building with waterfront on the Kennebec River. This building in the past has also had 2 small commercial spaces on Water St as well as still being able to rent out the upstairs 3 bdrm apt and the 1st level single bdrm unit which is located in the back of the building.
