A nearly two-century-old Maine inn combining historic character, village walkability, sustainable hospitality, and a remarkable sense of place. Set on approximately two acres in the heart of Blue Hill village, just a short stroll from the shores of Blue Hill Bay, the Blue Hill Inn offers an authentic coastal Maine experience grounded in history, community, and understated charm. Built in 1830 and welcoming guests since 1840, the property has an extraordinary hospitality legacy spanning nearly two centuries. The Federal-style inn is located within the Blue Hill Historic District, recognized on the National Register of Historic Places. Its architecture and interiors retain many of the elements that give historic Maine properties their distinctive appeal, including classic clapboard siding, nine-over-six windows, original wide pumpkin pine and hardwood floors, traditional fireplaces, and gracious, light-filled rooms. The property is surrounded by mature elm trees, perennial gardens, fruit trees, and inviting outdoor seating areas that create a peaceful setting in the center of the village. The main inn encompasses approximately 5,828 square feet and includes 12 guest rooms plus a two-room owner/manager suite**. Guest rooms are spacious and comfortable, with natural light, original hardwood floors, neutral finishes, and selected wallcoverings. The inn also includes a welcoming dining room and two parlors, creating intimate gathering spaces that encourage guests to linger and enjoy the character of the property. An additional 1,824-square-foot Cape House provides valuable flexibility, with a suite and studio accommodations, kitchens, fireplaces, and private outdoor space. The property also includes a 560-square-foot detached garage and storage shed. The garage offers potential for expansion or conversion to additional owner quarters, staff housing, or other uses, subject to appropriate approvals. The Blue Hill Inn is supported by substantial infrastructure and operational amenities. A large commercial kitchen is equipped for breakfast service, catering, or full restaurant operations and includes a six-burner propane range, griddle, commercial dishwasher and sanitizer, ice machine, refrigerators and freezers, grease trap, extensive storage, and other professional equipment. The dining room can accommodate approximately 36 guests and has historically supported both breakfast service and limited dinner service. The kitchen and dining facilities offer an interesting opportunity for a new owner. Friday evening dinners were previously offered and proved popular, with the dining room sometimes turning tables twice. The operation has not offered dinner in recent years by choice, but the existing commercial infrastructure could support a future expansion into dinner service, private dining, culinary events, catering, or other food-and-beverage programming. The property also offers robust operational infrastructure, including two washers and two dryers, a Miele rotary ironer, extensive linen capacity, multiple heating and cooling systems, and an automatic Generac propane generator serving the entire property. The main building's roof was replaced in 2025, while the Cape House roof is approximately five years old. Two propane boilers serve the inn's hot-water radiator system, with one replaced in 2024, and multiple air-conditioning systems provide guest comfort during the warmer months. The property has public sewer and private well water, with three wells on site, one currently believed to be in use. There are approximately 10 on-site parking spaces, additional street parking, and two dedicated EV parking spaces with a Level 2 Blink charger. The Blue Hill Inn's story is inseparable from the evolution of Blue Hill itself. When the inn was built in 1830, Blue Hill was a working maritime and mill community shaped by shipbuilding, lumber, quarrying, and coastal commerce. By 1840, the building had become an inn, providing lodging to travelers, merchants, and visitors arriving through the region. As coastal Maine evolved in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Blue Hill began attracting summer visitors seeking fresh air, natural beauty, and an escape from city life. The Blue Hill Inn continued to welcome travelers through this transition from maritime economy to tourism destination. What distinguishes the property today is not simply its age, but its continuity. For nearly 200 years, the building has adapted to changing generations of travelers while maintaining its essential character. Original architectural details, traditional proportions, fireplaces, floors, and village setting provide an authentic connection to the past, while contemporary systems and amenities support a modern hospitality operation. Location is one of the property's greatest assets. The Blue Hill Inn sits directly in the village center, allowing guests to walk to restaurants, galleries, shops, cultural events, and other village amenities. At the same time, the inn serves as an ideal base for exploring the larger Blue Hill Peninsula and the surrounding coast. The region offers an abundance of outdoor and cultural experiences, including hiking, biking, kayaking, sailing, boating, whale watching, sightseeing, antiquing, concerts, art galleries, craft studios, islands, and lighthouses. Blue Hill is approximately 1 hour from Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park**, a little over an hour from Camden, 50 minutes from Bangor, and 35 minutes from Stonington. The location allows visitors to experience many of coastal Maine's best-known destinations while returning to a quieter and more intimate village at the end of the day. Unlike higher-volume coastal destinations, Blue Hill has developed a tourism identity centered on authenticity, creativity, food, culture, and natural beauty. Its independent galleries, craft studios, restaurants, music, and arts community attract travelers who are looking for an experience beyond the traditional Maine tourist itinerary. The peninsula also benefits from a substantial year-round community, helping support local businesses and cultural activity beyond the summer season. The primary high season generally runs from June through October, with opportunities for meaningful shoulder- and off-season business. The Blue Hill Inn offers a particularly distinctive opportunity for an owner-operator or hospitality entrepreneur seeking a property with an established identity and room to develop its next chapter. The existing operation provides a strong foundation: 12 guest rooms, owner/manager accommodations, a separate Cape House, commercial kitchen, dining room, extensive historic common areas, landscaped grounds, substantial infrastructure, and a highly walkable village location. Blue Hill Inn is a rare Maine hospitality property combining nearly 200 years of history with modern infrastructure, established accommodations, substantial commercial facilities, potential for future growth.
