Property Description
Poised above the rocks at the western end of Bayview with sweeping 180° ocean views, The Breakers Inn stands as a Higgins Beach landmark and one of Maine's most unique coastal offerings.
Built in 1900 and lovingly maintained, this 5,350+ -square-foot property features 13 en-suite guest rooms, capturing the character and craftsmanship of another era. The wrap-around dining room, commercial kitchen, and warm wood interiors set the stage for sunrise mornings and salt-air evenings that feel timeless.
Set on a bold beachfront .35-acre lot just steps from the surf and sand, the property's Coastal Mixed-Use location offers unmatched flexibility — preserve it as a private oceanfront residence, reimagine it as a boutique coastal retreat, condos, or explore the potential for three ocean-view home sites. With 14 parking spaces, incredible Atlantic views, and a presence that defines Higgins Beach, it's an opportunity rarely seen and impossible to replicate.
For more than a century, The Breakers has been part of Higgins Beach's story — welcoming generations of visitors drawn to its charm, waves, and vibrant community. Today, it offers a new owner the chance to live the beach life while shaping its next chapter: whether as a showpiece residence, a gathering place, or a modern interpretation of Maine's innkeeping tradition.
2 Bayview Avenue is more than an address; it's a legacy property — one that embodies the soul of coastal living and the rare opportunity to own a piece of Maine's history, with a future as inspiring as its view.
