Find 19th-century charm and every modern convenience at this ideally located family home in Rockland, where you'll be a matter of steps from downtown's wonderful restaurants, shops, and scenic harbor.

Ideal for a long-term stay (30-night minimum), this two-story home sits on a quiet street in downtown Rockland, only three blocks from the historic center. There's so much to enjoy here, with several art galleries, renowned museums, the Maine Lobster Festival, and the Rockland Breakwater Lighthouse all right in town. As the center of Midcoast Maine, Rockland is also an excellent home base for day trips, whether you venture to the picturesque harbors of Rockport and Camden (seven miles), board a boat from Port Clyde to Monhegan Island (17 miles), dine out in Portland (78 miles), or escape into nature in Acadia National Park (80 miles).

This Queen Anne home dates back to 1895, but it has been thoughtfully updated in the years since with high-speed WiFi, TVs with cable and streaming capability, a washer/dryer, and other contemporary comforts. An en suite bath was added to the renovated primary suite in spring 2024. Still, the house also maintains much of its original character, including a wide, shaded porch out front where you can sip your morning coffee in rocking chairs and watch your kids play in the fenced yard.

Step inside to be greeted by a living room with a fireplace, a separate family room where you can watch TV in the evenings, and a study with both a sofa bed and a desk to serve as either a home office or a sleeping space. Enjoy an eat-in country kitchen, a gas grill on the porch to sear seafood fresh from the ocean, and ample space for family meals and after-dinner board games at the kitchen and dining room tables.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Great location but with challenges
Pros Location - This house is on a quiet street that is an easy walk to town for everything. It was a perfect location. Front porch and yard - The outside was exceptional. We spent lots of time on the porch and the dogs absolutely loved the yard. The yard was cared for weekly and well maintained. Space - It was large and had plenty of room. Extras - The record player and record collection was outstanding and we enjoyed them thoroughly. Cons Cleanliness - It was not very clean when we moved in. Plenty of spaces looked as if they hadn't been touched for quite a while. There was extremely old food left in the cabinets as well. We cleaned the house ourselves when we got it. Smell - It smelled badly like moth balls. Eventually we found the source was in one of the bedroom closets that was locked and we were unable to get in it. Several days later the local team came and removed them. However, that bedroom was unusable for our stay. We had to buy scent diffusers and other items to help with the smell. AC - The listing said AC, but what they meant was partial AC. There were 2 units in the house to use. Maintenance connected them only after we requested it. Windows - The windows did not open initially. All of them were old and stuck shut, which made the house very hot and didn't help with the smell. Again the local team was able to fix most. Kitchen - Half of the stove didn't work. The local team did what they could to help and we appreciated their efforts.
